Moon Knight #6 the conclusion for Ellis, Bellaire and Shalvey?

So I was trying to make sense of the last line and decipher what it actually means. Does it mean it is the conclusion to this first arc from this impressive creative team on the title. Or does it mean that this is the end of their work on the title all together and come September a new creative team will be on the book. I for one have really been enjoying this book, although biased as I am a big fan of Declan Shalvey and Jordie Bellaire.

"MOON KNIGHT #6
Warren Ellis (W)
Declan Shalvey & JORDIE BELLAIRE (A/C)
• A threat from the first issue is back to cause problems for Moon Knight!
• This mysterious person is the new BLACK SPECTRE and it doesn't mean anything good for the protector of night travelers.
• Don't miss the conclusion of Warren Ellis, Declan Shalvey and Jordie Bellaire.
32 PGS./Rated T+ ...$3.99"


But while reading this weeks Axel in Charge on CBR the below question was fielded to him and his answer gives a bit more sense to the term conclusion. Meaning the end of the first volume, but doesn't really answer the question regarding whether the current creative team will still be working on the title. I for one, hope they will be. If not and it is the case that issue 6 is their last issue I certainly hope that Declan Shalvey and Jordie Bellaire will be announced on a new title soon.

"Also, the "Moon Knight" solicitation promises a "conclusion" in #6. People
are wondering what that means -- can you confirm or deny that Warren Ellis, Declan Shavley and Jordie Bellaire's story ends with #6?
Alonso: "Moon Night: Volume One" concludes with issue #6. "Moon Knight: Volume Two" starts the next month. We'll have more to say about that soon, and I'm very excited."
