Since your iPhone 6 doesn't support iOS versions beyond 12.4.8 (because of hardware incompatibility) you CANNOT use this recent support article:--> If you forgot your Screen Time passcode – Apple Support , where the minimum requirements are: iOS 13.4 or later AND knowledge of the Apple ID & Password that were used to set up your ScreenTime passcode, sorry.

Unfortunately, in your situation you've only two choices:

cohabit with the existing passcode
erase your iPhone contents (without restoring data from a backup, since that passcode would come back) using these instructions (even if referred to a different passcode):--> If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled
