ZA also called Tiferet (Splendor), on behalf of one of his Sephiroth. But why is it consists of 6? Answer: The Ten Sefirot are divided into 3 highest and 7 the lowest. All the Sefirot of ZA are lower, so they can not fully "to include a" three highest Sephiroth. So it turns out a kind of displacement. Khesed is Keter, HG - Chochmah, Tipheret - Bean, NH - Tipheret, hOd - Malhut and Jesod - "adapter" from ZA to Malhut representing "salad" from the rest Sefiros.

The legendary story of the Torah - Jacob and his sons. Jacob - Sephira Tiferet Yosef - Yesod. Yesod in Tiferet is under the Tree of the Sephiroth, therefore, Joseph called the favorite son of Jacob. It is said that the brothers could not "speak peace" with Joseph. This is an allusion to the difference of their properties. As we said above, Yosef Yesod is a salad from the properties of other Sephiroth. One-sixth of it is similar to each of them, but five-sixths is different.
