I've never used the PDP-10, but ...
I learned to program in Fortran 66 (IV) on a CDC 6400 with 60-bit words.
It used a 6-bit character set, so 10H fit into one word. The next
machine I used was a DEC 10 with TOPS-10. It had 36-bit words, but I
never encountered 6-bit characters on it; 7-bit ASCII IIRC.
