The ep notation d6 is spurious here, since it has no affect on the position.
r1b1k1r1/1p2np1p/p1n1pQp1/3p4/3NPP2/P2RB3/2PK2PP/q4B1R w q d6
I prefer:
r1b1k1r1/1p2np1p/p1n1pQp1/3p4/3NPP2/P2RB3/2PK2PP/q4B1R w q -
I know the EPD standard says always set the flag when the pawn moves 2 spaces. But it doubles analysis when you have two identical positions, one with an ep flag and one without and both identical in possible move choices.
