problem with max retries

I am doing a UDP port scan with -T4 template but i set the scan delay as 5s
which is more than rtt timeout, according to this template the max retries
option is set to 6 but after analyzing the scan it is seen that nmap is re
transmitting a probe for each port only 2 times rather than 6. Whats the
reason for this behavior of Nmap?
