The number of points refers to the inside gripping surface of the socket.
12 points is more “flexible” in how it can be attached, but 6 point is stronger. I would likely prefer strong in something that large.
One other thing to consider is the material the socketbis made from. “Impact” sockets are built strong to remove stubborn bolts.
Also for automotive applications i would usually buy a deep socket. Not a shallow one.
My choice in this situation would be:

If your man’s friend can keep a secret, you might ask what he has in order to get exactly what he already borrows though. Similarly you can look at his current kit and buy the same brand/style.
Good job with a solid gift. I hope he gives you the same thought.
