You have things mixed up a bit.

To clarify:

CM 6000 is playing with its standard settings, except that selectivity is set to
10 instead of 6.

CM 5555 (*not* CM 6555!) is a modified CM 5500 (*not* CM 6000) personality.
It plays better than 5500 IMO. It has performed extraordinarily well in almost
100 games at 40/120 on my site, that's why I still use it, though CM 5500 is
already quite old.

Hash size is 64 MB for both CMs. I have not yet checked if 128 MB will help or
harm, probably neither.
