Michelle posted the wrong notice, or Apple delivered the wrong content
to her - that was the text for the previous Java update in March. The
one released yesterday was 2013-003, and it does include Java 1.6.0_45.

The link is correct.

For Lion and Mountain Lion (Java for OS X 2013-003):

For Snow Leopard (Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 15):

See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5734 for details for the security
improvements, or refer to Oracle's page.
