Imagine the thought processes:

LHO must surely have clubAQ for his 3NT bid, so the other aces will be on my right. If I can deflect partner from his normal club lead by doubling 6NT then he will lead dummy's first bid suit and we'll score at least 200 - bound to be a good score. Hang on a minute, if I pass and partner leads a club then I will still have two entries and eventually I will be able to cash loads of club tricks and score more than 200.

So I'll pass .
