Inconsistency in versions of Elasticsearch for Mac/Linux

I've just downloaded the latest version of Elasticsearch (6.6.1 is mentioned on the main page as the latest stable version) for Mac/Linux from this URL: https://www.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch

but when I go to http://localhost:9200 it says I am running version 6.4.0.

{
"name": "GRLG7Qg",
"cluster_name": "elasticsearch",
"cluster_uuid": "EtdHVOE4RYS_YPQI__ySkQ",
"version": {
"number": "6.4.0",
"build_flavor": "default",
"build_type": "deb",
"build_hash": "595516e",
"build_date": "2018-08-17T23:18:47.308994Z",
"build_snapshot": false,
"lucene_version": "7.4.0",
"minimum_wire_compatibility_version": "5.6.0",
"minimum_index_compatibility_version": "5.0.0"
},
"tagline": "You Know, for Search"
}

Which means that I cannot run Kibana because Kibana requires version 6.6.1. This is the error log after trying to launch latest version of Kibana.

strange, I just went to the link, downloaded the Mac/Linux version and started it, version 6.6.1 as expected.

  "version" : {
    "number" : "6.6.1",
    "build_flavor" : "default",
    "build_type" : "tar",
    "build_hash" : "1fd8f69",
    "build_date" : "2019-02-13T17:10:04.160291Z",
    "build_snapshot" : false,
    "lucene_version" : "7.6.0",
    "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
    "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
  }

Yes, I know. I flagged this thread as 'to be deleted' because I quickly discovered that I already had one instance installed on my Ubuntu box which was...you'll never guess it... 6.4.0. I didn't know I did have one, my bad.
