Why am I not surprised?
Maybe the graphical user interface (GUI) is more accurate.

If you really do have the V2 model, then you should install
R6400v2 Firmware Version 1.0.4.128 - NETGEAR Support
The router should object if you try to install the wrong firmware for your version.
Just another user with time on their hands.
Netgear is usually pretty good at not allowing the wrong firmware to be installed (ie a v2 image on a v1 router) and the model number on the back/bottom should have v2 if it's a v2. Not sure you got where you are but you can try downloading the current (latest) version of firmware for your router and install it manually.
Current version for the v1 is 1.0.1.78
Current version for the v2 is 1.0.5.128
