Probably the 7.1 version has overwritten the 6.1 version. A harsh way to
clean it up would be:

pkg_delete linux_base-6.1_1
pkg_delete linux_base-7.1

This can cause a lot of warnings since it is likely that files of both
packages are overlapping.

Then, install linux_base again (which gives version 7.1).

If you have other programs depending on linux_base, you would have to
force deinstallation with -f. Fixing your ports database afterwards using 
pkgdb from the sysutils/portupgrade port is recommended.
