Actually the faster the generator spins and/or the more current you pump through its field coils the more energy it produces. I have used 6 volt gennys to charge 12 volt batteries simply by using a 12 volt voltage regulator HOWEVER the field current can be different in a factory 6 volt versus a factory 12 volt genny, THEREFORE if a shop changes a 6 volt for 12 volt operation they could change out the field coils to accommodate more current and resultant heat.
Its true a 6 volt genny can be made to charge a 12 volt battery by passing more current through its field coils, but its also true they are NOT the same gennys out of the factory and the field coils and armature ratings can be of different rating and design.
