IMPORTANT - Apparently it is possible for the old apk to "come back from the dead" and on this release it turned out that a second visit to the (insert expletive here) Market was necessary to re-activate the 6.0b4 apk AGAIN. So watch your back with anything to do with the Market and check it twice.
PROTIP: after publishing new apk on android marketplace, ask anyone in RelEng who has an android device to check for updates. Some delay in seeing new apk might be caused by cache-needing-to-refresh. However, a multi-hour delay in seeing new apk means there is something wrong with the settings in marketplace website. Fixing this may require going to the "upload new apk" tab, then clicking the "advanced" tab and looking at the build ids to compare to the build date you're expecting.
