Was there official records that stated that there were only six unconverted cars? Just asking?

No
years ago before NCRS reports, when I was helping Tom B research his 1968 CB L78 with 140 speedo, I told him I thought it was an unconverted Yenko COPO9737 because I thought that Yenko was the only one who got the 1968 L78 COPO 9737 Camaros from Chevy. There is some paperwork that supports this similar to Fred Gibb getting all 50 1968 COPO 9738 L78 TH400 Novas.

I then found one of those Yenko ads showing 6 L78 140 speedo Camaros for sale late in the model year.
Some people took this to mean only 6 unconverted cars were sold but I never said that.
Someone even put it in a magazine article but it has no supporting documentation.

I have not found any hard numbers for how many 1968 COPO 9737 Camaros were built or how many were converted to 427.
Fran Preve's work estimated about 70 1968 COPO 9737 Camaros were built based on MV engine production records.
Vince E said his records show 64 427 Camaros sold

Yenko also built some 1968 427 450hp Camaros from non COPO 9737 L78 4 sp cars and appears some 427 425hp TH400 cars were built from SS396 325hp cars (same as in 1967)
As far as I can tell, all the 1968 COPO 9737 Camaros were ordered as L78 4 speed with 140 speedos and the other hi po parts but hard to say if this is 100% true
