The 6% is the states sales tax. The municipalities can chose to add to the state sales tax for local coffers. With large purchases only the first $5000 is taxed at the higher rate the remainder is taxed at 6%.
The state website explains it better than I, or as I just noticed d4g4m did a very good job while I was writing this post
