Need advice 360 timing chain cam/crank slightly off

For a normal installation, shouldn't the crank gear be at 12 O'clock and the cam at 6 O'clock?
It's easier to align the dots that way
But it is firing #6 in that position.
So you can either install the distributor in with the rotor pointing at #6
Or rotate the crankshaft 1 turn
With both dots at 12 O'clock
and point the rotor at #1
