Gb Minor 6, written Gbm6, is built from Gb, Bbb, Db and Eb: the root, minor 3rd, 5th and 6th.
Its 3rd and 6th, Bbb and Eb, are its guide tones: they say what kind of chord it is, so voicings are built around them and the root is often left to the bass.
In the progressions here, Gbm6 is the i6 of the Minor ii-V-I Progression in Gb and the iv6 of the Minor Plagal Cadence in Db.
