Definitely not. DEC keys have seven cut positions, and on an XX2247,

a few other XX.... keys I have, there are 7 cut positions, and although
on all of them one position is very small, it's not a zero cut, and it's
in a different place on every different-numbered key.

Somehow, I was
stuck on the notion that this was a seven cut key.
That sounds very reasonable and correct for a six cut key.
I Also thought that. But I got a key and saw just 6 slots. Went to
wikipedia and now I know there are 6 and 8 slotted keys. So it SEEMS to
be reasonable the code is the depth of the cuts. I'm not a locksmith so
I cannot confirm this info now.
