I actually asked the Canon rep to clarify what mfd means and he was unequivocal about it being from the front of the lens and not the sensor.

unequivocal? the guy was ignorant, didn't know what he was talking about. canon reps are not geniuses. distance is always measured from the sensor - always. that's precisely the reason  why you're getting these "supernatural" 6 inches focusing distance from the front of the lens.
