Why does the SP101 have five shots and the Speed Six 6?

Maybe everyone else in the world knows why, but I don't. Whenever I get the urge to buy a SP101, the lack of that 6th chamber just gets to me and I go right back to my two Speed Sixes.

What I'd like is the bobbed hammer snubbie, probably to replace my 640, since it's so much nicer to shoot, with that extra weight.
 
get it in 327 Federal and you'll get 6 shots.

In 357 magnum, the cylinder is just too small to fit six 357 magnum holes
