What does Zone 5 mean on boarding pass?

Zone was started when LH imagined they would do something that resembled priority boarding. So window seats at the back of the plane were labelled Zone 1, then middle seats Zone 2, Aisle seats Zone 3 etc for that rear section of the plane. And an aisle seat in the front of the plane would be zone 5 or 6.
