   Possibly six is defined as a modifier key?


Not in the least.  The only reference to it in the problematic
xmodmap file was 

 keycode 30 = 6 asciicircum

(or, according to the output of xmodmap -pk)

     30        0x0036 (6)    0x005e (asciicircum)       

(and xmodmap -pm)

xmodmap:  up to 5 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):

shift       Shift_L (0x40),  backslash (0x44)
lock      
control     Control_L (0x83),  Control_R (0x6a),  Control_R (0x85)
mod1        Mode_switch (0x2c),  Mode_switch (0x7d)
mod2        Meta_L (0x84),  Meta_L (0x86)
mod3        Hyper_L (0x3a),  Hyper_L (0x47),  Hyper_R (0x26)
mod4        Super_L (0x46),  Super_L (0x7a),  Super_R (0x29)
mod5        Alt_L (0x6f),  Alt_L (0x7f)

Also note that the six key was working as usual in 1.3.0-RC1b.
