Geof,
Is the 'pitch' you are referring to in your examples a regular thread tap pitch, not a diametral pitch that would be more commonly referred to in a gear catalogue? 6 diametral pitch would have 1 inch of diameter for every 6 teeth on the gear, hence a 4" pitch diameter gear would have 24 teeth.
