Your tractor is a 1951 McCormick W6, and is too old to be a Super. Either someone took the serial number tag, or frame from a W6 and put them on a Super W6 (unlikely, but you never know. . .) , someone put the hood from a Super W6 on your W6, or it was repainted by the dealer when it was first purchased. In our area, W6's did not move very well at the dealers. Our W6 had been owned by someone previously, but was then traded into the dealer for a newer model. When it wouldn't sell, they painted it red and white to match the other 460s and 560s on the lot.
It is possible that yours stood on the lot long enough to fade out the original decals, so the dealer replaced them with the newer style Super decals as well. It is impossible to say what really happened, but it certainly wasn't that way from the factory.
