Default Ruud Age..?

I have a Ruud water heater and its month appears to be June, but no leading zero. Is this really as old as I suspect?

hmmmm.... good one... my cheat sheet says "two digit month followed by two digit year"

does it look that old or does it look 96? 66/67 does not seem correct.

I don't know about the water heater but that wall paper looks forty years old.
