I have found a bit more information on the topic.
The text in the document do instruct a fall back to occur at September 11, 13pm in summer time, while ordinary citizens can change the clock before they sleep.

Yes, that's the nub of the question. If people in Japan generally did
the former, we should change tzdb to model the transition as one from
01:00 to 00:00 Sunday; this is not exact but is the best we can do. If
people generally did the latter we're OK as-is. Possibly some people did
one thing while others did the other, as the American occupiers did not
always see eye-to-eye with the Japanese populace and I doubt whether
it's entirely a coincidence that Japan stopped observing DST three days
after US occupation ended.
As we've already mentioned, old Japanese-language newspapers could help
resolve this issue.
