Isn't the native white point of Apple monitors 5000K, not 6500?

If you are proofing yellow MatchPrints, then 5000k is good. For whiter media,
6500 is good, but I tend to use the paper white proofing setting in Photoshop
to control this, rather than yellowing my virtual universe for the sake of a
MatchPrint.
