[edit] The patterns
winds(max is easier)
Cat(x + 1) − Cat(x) = y(1)
Cat(x + 2) − Cat(x + 1) = y(2)
y(2) − y(1) = 5
110-95=15
130-110=20
20-15=5
130-110=20
155-130=25
25-20=5
pressure(min is easier)
Cat(x) − Cat(x + 1) = y(1)
Cat(x + 1) − Cat(x + 2) = y(2)
y(2) − y(1) = 5
980-965=15
965-945=20
20-15=5
965-945=20
945-920=25
25-20=5

[edit] Proof of a possible need to extend the original
well if you look to the 1969 Atlantic hurricane season there was a hurricane called Camille. Camille's winds were 190 mph, this if the pattern that I found holds true , the table above would class it as Cat. 6. Other hurricanes that could be Cat. 6 according to a value of one of the wind statements etc. are:
2005,Wilma pressure
