On the freshly made 2.1.6.1 system I have here:

upsilon: uname -a
FreeBSD upsilon.alphabet.org 2.1.6-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.1.6-RELEASE #0: Fri Nov 29 22:12:37 CST 1996     root@upsilon.alphabet.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/UPSILON  i386

The GENERIC kernel also reports 2.1.6-RELEASE.

My /sys/conf/newvers.sh says:

I guess it's possible I somehow got my 2.1.6 bits crossed with my 2.1.6.1
bits, but I don't see how.
