I've attached histograms before vs after resizing using the various modes in Photoshop CS5. You can see that only "Bicubic sharper" results in the clipping spike that you're talking about. You'll get similar results with "Bicubic best for smooth gradients" mode followed by unsharp masking.

Figured out what it is after posting on the adobe forum.
In CS6 the bottom drop down defaults to bicubic (automatic) in the image resize window. I never noticed it before TBH. Changing it to Bicubic (best for smooth gradients) sorted out the issue although it defaults back to its original automatic settings. No clipping now. In CS5 it defaults to Bicubic (best for smooth gradients) which is why it worked in one but not the other.
