No it doesn't as commit starts with c which matches [a-f0-9]{1,40}

Try your original egrep command line yourself.

Maybe use:

$ git log | egrep 'Fixes: [a-f0-9]{1,40}' | awk '{ if (length($2) == 6) { print $0;} }'

The first few matches are

    the commit referenced in Fixes: below replaced the call to
    Fixes: commit 18a992787896 ("ARM: ux500: move soc_id driver to drivers/soc")
    Fixes: commit 0580dde59438 ("ASoC: simple-card-utils: add asoc_simple_debug_info()")
    Since Fixes: 8c5421c016a4 ("perf pmu: Display pmu name when printing
    Fixes: commit 961fb3c206dc ("ASoC: rockchip: rk3399_gru_sound: don't select unnecessary Platform")

It's a generic function.
