The six subdirectories correspond to the six runlevels. 
Each directory contains links to the services to be started, when
Linux boots in that particular run level.
Check out /etc/inittab for the runlevels.

BTW, your posting is in the wrong list, should be in linux-india-help.
Followups there.

Cheers,
Amar :-)
