This is to be compatible with different Cron formats. Again this is the part of the underlying Cron library I chose (because it has year support). It's to do with supporting 5, 6 or 7 part Cron formats.  
E.g.

- if there are 5 parts, its minutes  
`m h md m wd`
- 6 parts considers the 1st part to be seconds  
`s m h md m wd`
- 7 parts considers the last part as year  
`s m h md m wd y`
