Please read this sentence over and over until it sinks:
"If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation."
Pay most attention to this part "If the Program specifies xxx and "any later version"", especially word "specifies".
