In a former life, I worked at an auto repair shop and one of the guys use to take the empty quarts of oil and turn then upside down to drain the residual oil left in the bottle out. He would get a full quart after so many "empty" bottles.
Maybe it is 6 quarts with a factory filter, and the extra 1/4-1/2 quart people are adding is due to the oil which sticks to the inside of the bottles and to the funnel?
