An octahedron shape is one which has 8 faces. Since it is a prism it must be a hexagonal prism (2 hexagons and 6 rectangles = 8 faces). And a hexagonal prism has 2*6 = 12 vertices.

How many vertices has an octahedron?

An octahedron is the name for a non-specific shape. It could, as described above, be a di-rectangular pyramid with 6 vertices. Or it could be a heptagonal pyramid, in which case it has 8 vertices. Or it could be a hexagonal prism, in which case it has 12 vertices. There are other octahedraons.
