These two photos show the PB4Y version with 6 turrets, each with two guns, 
which follows the written description John found.

This photo shows a different version of the PB4Y with only 4 possible turrets, 
the aft-top one being missing, and the fore-top one being an observation 
blister without guns. I don't know which version is "later".
