Bell Shaped Curve and Normal Distribution Attributes
X +/- 1 sigma → 68% – 317.3 million defects per billion opportunities for failure
X +/- 2 = 95% – 45.4 million
X +/- 3 = 99.73% – 2.7 million (most companies at here)
X +/- 4 = 99.9937% – 63,000
X +/- 5 = 99.9999943 – 57
X +/- 6 = 99.9999999998 – 2

Six Sigma = 2 defects/billion opportunities
