What does this Robot response to RKCB 5NT mean?

The explanation for South's 6♣ bid is "No king (below C)"


I had this hand (playing Just Declare) which the Robots had bid to 7♣. The 4NT by North was a RKCB ask with Clubs as trumps, followed by 5NT which is explained as "Query Kings". What responses are used after 5NT, and what does the bid explanation "No King (below C)" mean? Did South somehow show that K♠, or did South deny the K♠?

Thanks for any clarification.

I think GIB uses SKA - Specific King Ask after 5NT.
So, 4NT is RKCB - 5♣ means 1/4 - which South doesn't have so North 'thinks' South has 4.
5NT asks for Kings so 6♣ means no king apart from the ♣K which is also not true.
7♣ is a sign off.

Maybe smerriman can make sense of it?
