De nada Matt,
While Mr. P Sellers uses 5/16″ (7.94 mm, i.e. 8 mm) “French wood screws” to secure the vice to the underside of the bench, and 1/4″ (6.35 mm, i.e. 6 mm) for the ones going through the rear jaw (thanks Larry G.), he appears to use the same bit for the pre-drilling. My guess is that the diameter of that bit is either 3/16″ (4.7625 mm) or 5 mm [the latter I think is more likely when it comes to brad point drill bits].
If the drill-bit you used for the holes in the apron was 6 mm, the screws going into the underside of the benchtop would bite, but not the ones going into the apron.
