*can I apply for Uk citizenship after getting permanent card

as a EU member I have been living in the UK for 7 years, this week I received a permanent residence card issued June 2013,

how questions is can I apply straight away for British citizenship, or I have to wait 12 months as HO website says:
You should have held permanent residence status for 12 months before you apply for naturalisation.


but in my case I have been here for more then 6 years and I can prove that 1 year before they started to count towards my residence card?


April 2008- April 2013 - thats what they checked 5 years for resident
April 2007 - April 2013 - thats what I can prove that 1 extra year before they counted towards residence so there is 6 years

or they want
April 2008 - April 2013 + one year counted from June 2013 when card was issued, so the first time I would apply for citizenship would be JUne 2014


please let me know as its confusing and not clear in my case

thanks
