six-by-six

Cube's face count

Six-by-six describes something measuring six units in each of two dimensions, or having six components in two categories.

A six-by-six grid has thirty-six squares.

In military usage, a six-by-six is a truck with six wheels, all six driven—giving it superior traction for rough terrain.

The pattern extends to other measurements: a six-by-six beam, a six-by-six photo.
