Pic of plant with ruler for scale.
As everyone can see, the new shoot is almost 6 inches tall.
There are actually 6 growths on this orchid. People cannot see the smallest cane in this photo, it is being obscured by the orchid in front of it. The smallest/oldest cane is approximately 1.5 inches tall. Second smallest cane is about 3.5 inches tall, (it's the one on the far left in the photo, with the 1 erect leaf on top).
The third cane is right in front of the fourth cane, but it looks like both canes are one cane, (which is an optical illusion); and is right at, if not, a little tiny bit over 6 inches tall.
Fourth cane is approximately 10 inches tall.
The fifth cane is the largest cane.
The newest cane is the 6th.

Quite nice. Orange is not a very common color amongst Dens.
Any fragrance?

There might be. I don't know yet. I thought I detected a hint of it yesterday evening, but I wasn't quite sure if it was coming from the Dendrobium or some other nearby plants.
