Motor question for everybody...

With these mini gear motors I'm using they list the amps @6v stall current. They also list the torque. Is the stall current the current draw when the motor is stalled? Does that have anything to do with the power output or torque?

On the chart below you can see the numbers. I have the following four motors.

LP 250:1 and 298:1
MP 250
HP 250

I like the RPM in the 50-75 range, but I can get some other pinion gears and compensate for that if I need to.

I cut off the column titles. It is stall current, rpm, torque...
