Given that the definition of RMS is "equivalent DC heating effect", or words to that effect, I'd say 6.3V RMS is exactly the same as 6.3V DC.
Presumably here, you're getting at the fact he's rectified and smoothed 6.3V AC to give a higher DC voltage that he has then had to drop via the big resistor?
You're a braver man than I to take this on - especially for just £400
Good luck,
