So was it six Australian soldiers who were the surviving Allied soldiers, or was it five Australians and a Brit?

As the article says, the "five Australians and one British soldier" mentioned were the only survivors from the first march still alive on June 26. It doesn't mean that they were the POWs who escaped and survived. Grant | Talk 03:24, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
