There are actually two zones, depending on which side of the pawn the black king is. If it's already in the corner, the zone is small:
If the black king on the other side (towards the center), the zone is larger. The white queen can force the king to stand in front of the pawn, giving the white king an extra tempo to reach the 'small' zone above. (This also applies if the king is in front of the pawn already.)
