jumping with 12V

Hey guys,

I don't normally post over here but i have a question:

A buddy of mine has a '56? and he tried to jump start it a couple of months ago with a 12V system.

He says that it is a 6V system in the truck but he was told that you can jump with 12V if your really quick about pulling the cables.
sounds suspect.

He says that when he tried to jump the truck he heard a loud POP and now the truck won't start.

I haven't actually popped the hood and looked for myself yet but what do you guys think?
