Yes, the link given on the download page (https://www.lyx.org/Download), 
which is 
https://lyx.mirror.garr.it/bin/2.5.1/LyX-2.5.1+qt6-x86_64-cocoa.dmg, 
seems incorrect. If  you look at the directory listing 
(https://lyx.mirror.garr.it/bin/2.5.1/), the Qt6 version seems to be 
LyX-2.5.1%2Bqt6-x86_64-arm64-cocoa.dmg, which contains a slightly funky 
"+" sign (%2B) and a rather confusing architecture (aren't x86_64 and 
arm64 rather different?).
