Once removed means there is one generation difference. You're mothers first cousin is you're first cousin, once removed. You're grandmother's first cousin is you're first cousin, twice removed. It's overly complicated:

Sixth cousin, twice removed means they have the same great-great-great-great-great-grandparents, twice removed means one of them is two generations younger than the other...

Told you, complicated...

Since it is on Wikipedia though, it's probably not true? . . .
