I'm sure someone would have replied by now if they
knew how to do it.  Since it's not possible to tell
in a music function which measures are going to be
placed at the beginning of each line this could be
quite difficult to do in general.  But if you are going
to force 6 measures per line and everything is regular,
you could write a music function which takes the music
to a measure as argument, and overrides and reverts the
font size around the music, and then use that for
every sixth measure.
