One is that the extra gasses held back keep the NOx production down further, but since there wasn’t any new emissions mandate from 05 to 06 that’s hard to justify. 

 

I had read somewhere some time ago that Dodge did this (not Cummins) for NOX control to come closer to meeting the 2007 emission mandate.  I wish I could remember the source.  It makes sense to me - a clever inexpensive way to carry over some exhaust gases into the the next intake stroke to reduce NOX emissions without adding on external parts.

The 5.9 never met the 2007 standards, and 0.006” wouldn’t even bring it close.
