I sat confused how each 16-bit row was being shown as 8 hex digits (32-bits). Thanks for explaining it was in octal.

I count 7 octal digits per row. Any reason it's 7 instead of 6 (7×3 = 21 whereas 6×3 = 18 which is still greater than 16)?

Maybe the zero digit prefix is retained to signify octal base (C style)?

That would make sense.
