I see no reason we will see another beta today, or anytime this week if it's being released next Tuesday. It will either the same build, as already mentioned, as beta 5, or maybe a few builds higher.

Mate it’s not your lucky day;)
Very true, but that's why this is a speculation thread. o_O Generally Apple doesn't release GMs unless it's a major version release (12, 13, etc.), but I guess they wanted to give folks (devs) extra time to test things out. I make no claim to have any elevated knowledge or less knowledge than anyone else here, glad it was released, it'll give me something to do updating my, and family members devices since I'm at home. :)

Confusing presentation on that release article. We don’t have formal GMs for point releases (as some have pointed out), and while the latest beta can become the de facto “GM,” today’s release is still a beta. The whole thing reads like a public release announcement.

Yes , I was just joking, nobody could have predicted that anyway , this never happens (a GM for a point release)
I’ m at home for the next 15 days (at least) because of the COVID-19 so I think I will install this to get some fun too....

There is no GM for point releases, it‘s called RC. The last beta is more or less always the RC / final release, not sure why you guys are so surprised by this.
Usually the last beta is the full release for the public true but there is not a “full release” like this one week before the public (not for .X release I mean)
