Jumbo Frames 3750e and 6509

Hello, I'm looking at a jumbo frames scenario.  But It seems to me my switches are incompatible.  The 3750e has a maximum jumbo MTU of 9198, the 6509 module can only do 9216.  So does this mean I cannot run jumbo frames between these two switches?

Never mind, I answered my own question.  MTU is MAXIMUM transmission unit.  Therefor as long as the end devices which are generating the frames are set to an MTU less than my maximum, in this case 9198, then I won't have any issues.
