I am confused about the brackets.

So, for example, for an IXB
[SUBMARINE_AMMO6]|Renown0=x

or

SUBMARINE_AMMO6|Renown0=x

???

And I assume I would also need to change the other renown entries for the IXB (succeeding years)?

Inside the basic.cfg you need to take the value that is inside the brackets, in this instance SUBMARINE_AMMO6 and input it into the static settings file like the way show below (without the brackets). So if you wanted the renown to be 0, it would look like so:

SUBMARINE_AMMO6|Renown0=0

Within the basic.cfg file when you want to modify something with SHC, you'll need to use variable inside the brackets as the first argument, then add the | and afterwards the change to the specific line you want to make. Note that even if you want to modify multiple values under the same 'heading' (like the configuration of torpedoes) you'll need to enter each value with the same preface, just look at the way the extended ranks are and you'll get the picture of how to put the proper prefixes in order to get the desired results. At first it may seem a confusing way to make configuration changes but when done right it really helps keep things tidy and easy to keep track of.
