This version is derived from the Real Book and from listening to the recording, which is a string arrangement. It is an estimation, the Dm6 is not voiced so clearly in the recording.. What I do, though I play piano, is play Dm, Dmmaj7/C#, Dm7/C, Dm6/B or just Dm, Dmmaj7, Dm7, Dm6. I like this part played like this.
