I guess R6 is part of the square wave generator that forms the b diagram. R6 accelerates the transition of the output state of the op amp through positive feedback to cross the indeterminate state, and acts as a Schmitt trigger. Guys do you agree?

You can plug the circuit in some simulator (like falstad.com, LTSpice or similar) to check what the parameters do. 

I did that for you here: https://tinyurl.com/yemxbzmt  As you guessed R6 in combination with LM358 B does work as a schmitt trigger.

The exact size of R6 probably does not matter all that much.

Thank you for leaving this suggestion as I can try to plug the circuit in some simulator!!!
