No, the problem is the blank character between the periods:

  6. ...

The PGN spec says:

  A move number indication is composed of one or more adjacent digits
  (an integer token) followed by zero or more periods.

which does (interpreted strictly) not allow blanks. However, I will make
jose's parser more tolerant.
