Page numbers starting from page 7
See Numbering (or not numbering) Front Matter by Suzanne Barnhill, MVP.
Page numbering is handled by Word by fields in headers and/or footers. These are components of sections. You can restart page numbering at the beginning of a new section using the Format Page Numbers dialog. Here is my exposition on page numbering but I think Suzanne's article will be all you need.
In common Word jargon, I think you are referring to a Table of Contents rather than to an Index. One is generally a sequential list of headings at the start of a document or part while the Index is an alphabetical list by topic, generally at the end of a document.
I'm glad I was able to help.

Suzanne's pages are http rather that https. This is not unusual in personal sites

Unfortunately I couldn't access the Suzanne Barnhill post. For some reason it was blocked by my work firewall.
Using your exposition page I did end up working it out. I added a section break in the page where I wanted to start the numbers, and it seems to have started them there.
