Don't think I've ever seen em with two different sizes of bearings? Then again not done loads of em, think the one's I've done were 4mm bearings either side.
At a guess I'd say bigger bearings near the crank arm, small at the end cap end? Edit - check a bearing next to the runner groove on the spindle/bolt - you should be able to see in profile which size bearing will fit where

There's a thread on here were Pickle says he's got a pair with different size bearings, and think the big un's go on the cap end?
