Just guessing here: OpenAI named their models alphabetically in order of the model size:

Davinci performed similarly to a 175B GPT-3 model and the next smallest model is Curie which corresponds to a 6.7B GPT model.

Now, there have been two GPT models fine tuned on Code, namely davinci-codex and cushman-codex. Since cushman != curie, it is presumably based on the GPT-model in between, namely the one with 13B. The initial Codex model as known to have 12B parameters, so it may still be that model:
