What unit is this?

I got a Finnish M16 helmet and there's a unit marked inside the liner. It states JR6 (Infantry Regiment 6), but I don't know what the "Pm Er Komp" means. I found some Erillinen Komppania-units, but I can't find such a unit in JR6 in Winter or Continuation War and the cover number (peiteluku) 3330 doesn't match up with the regiment.

What do you guys think?

I thought so too, but I can't find record of such unit.
