The 6502 was on the Apple I and Apple II so non sequitur as much as Apple's Z-80 CP/M plug-in board also for the Apple II. The 680X0 was the initial ISA on the 1st Mac. So Jerry is correct: 3 transitions 1) 680X0-to-POWER, 2) POWER-to-x86, 3) x86-to-ARM. The only way to get to more than 3 processor transitions on Mac is to consider POWER-to-x86-32 and then x86-32-to-x86-64 as 2 full-fledged transitions, which they sort of were but sort of weren't.
