SO....you have positive 3 on the right and negative 3 on the
left.....that makes for a total of 6 thou difference


No, it doesn't. Think about it.


CW's right. If you had a sled which was 0.003 off and you cut both
sides of a panel with it without flipping it, it would be 0.006 off.

But you're referencing the fence on your saw BUT the splitter holds
the board/panel inline. It might bind and burn just a wee bit on the
second cut, but there should be no 0.006" difference.
