Assuming you did add "order by id", either one or more of
1) you didn't connect to the mysql server properly
2) you didn't select the proper database
3) there is no contacts table
4) the contacts table does not have an id field
5) the contacts table contains less than 7 records
6) one or more records with id<=7 do not exist
