Chicago,
I think you are talking apples and oranges anyway...the brown and red hindus were printed in different series. Therefore, you really cannot compare the two fairly. Nearly all the higher series cards seemed to be in less quantity than the lower series whether you are talking piedmont or hindu. Not to mention, it is nearly impossible to decide a rarity multiplier because things come to market or are discovered all the time which changes your ratings.
Look at T205s as example. 20 years ago, Hindu T205s were a rumor. Then a small find came to market and it was thought they were rarer than Drums. Then another small Hindu find was made and suddenly T205 Drums were rarer. In the last 3 years at least two finds of T205 Drums has made the two backs about even again with Drum maybe pulling ahead a bit. Market rarity is very hard to determine and even the best multiplier will be a range (i.e. 5x-7x).
Ted can correct me on the T206s as I am not as familiar with them as with T205.
