Dictionary ordering compares words letter by letter from the left, so we group and sort the six words by their earliest distinguishing letters.
By the second letter, five words start 'In' (Income, Indeed, Inside, Industry, Insect) and only Island starts 'Is'; since n < s, all the 'In' words come before Island.
Within the 'In' group compare the third letter: Income has 'inc', Indeed and Industry have 'ind', Inside and Insect have 'ins', and c < d < s.
So Income (c) is first among them. Between Indeed ('inde') and Industry ('indu') the fourth letter gives e < u, so Indeed then Industry.
Between Insect ('inse') and Inside ('insi') the fourth letter gives e < i, so Insect then Inside.
Island, beginning 'Is', follows every 'In' word and so comes last.
Assembling the sequence gives Income, Indeed, Industry, Insect, Inside, Island, which is 2, 3, 5, 6, 4, 1. Hence the correct order is 2,3,5,6,4,1.
