The Change from Seven to Twelve in JST Revelation 5:6

 KJV Rev 5:6 reads:

 

And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

 

The JST for this verse reads:

 

And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having twelve horns and twelve eyes, which are the twelve servants of God, sent forth into all the earth.

 

The following image comes from New Testament Manuscript folio 4, page 151:
