    We show that the Hilbert scheme of two points on the Vinberg K3K3 surface has a 2:1 map onto a very symmetric EPW sextic YY in P5\mathbb{P}^5. The fourfold YY is singular along 6060 planes, 2020 of which form a complete family of incident planes. This solves a problem of Morin and O'Grady and establishes that 2020 is the maximal cardinality of such a family of planes. Next, we show that this Hilbert scheme is birationally isomorphic to the Kummer type IHS fourfold X0X_0 constructed in [DW]. We find that X0X_0 is also related to the Debarre-Varley abelian fourfold.Comment: 32 page
