1 A z-score of .5 means there is a 30% probability of encountering a defect. 2  A z-score of .25 means there is a 40% probability of a defect.3  For a sample that is 6Ï, the probability of a defect is .0000001%. 4  Note: Values do not include a 1.5Ï shift.he further away a sample is from the spec limit the higher the z-score and process sigma. A higher process sigma means a less defective process. The term Six Sigma originates from the z-score.
