The number 6919 is an alias and it is a convenient way to reference an item. This alias is specific to scm cli tool and it varies from system to system. The aliases range from 1000 to 9999 and it gets recycled/refreshed. If the command lists too many aliases and it cannot recycle the aliases, the cli will display '----'. Did the compare command list too many items?

By the way, if you are running the commands through your scripts, you should use the item-id which is displayed after the alias.
