As has been mentioned here before, the conventional exposure suggested 
for the full moon is called "moony f/11" vs. "sunny f/16" for 
terrestrial daylight shots.  If you convert your 1/400 sec, ASA100, f/6 
parameters to a 1/100 sec equivalent you'll find that the equivalent 
aperture for that shutter speed is pretty much spot on at f/12 or just 
1/3 stop slower.  The rule works.
