This gives us a way to know the number of attributes on this template node without actually counting them. There will be 5 * 2^woi attributes available. The maximum number of attributes is 5 * 2^6. If the value of this attribute is greater than 6, then it means that this is a node with the same number of attributes (as one with woi = 6), but with a different typeId - blindData mechanism in maya disallows having multiple subdHierBlind nodes with the same typeId.
