Why do you think this? The team has lost 2 of its last 3 games with mistakes, yet you think those mistakes will stop completely in the next 6 games? Four of which are on the road? Heck, even the Rams win was chock full of mistakes, but thank God it was a home game vs. a flawed team.
Obviously the Pats can avoid shooting themselves in the foot the rest of the way as you expect, but you make your expectation sound fairly reasonable while I think the odds of it are low.
And putting killer mistakes aside, this team has problems that make a 6-0 run very difficult. The Pats cannot defend the middle of the field (Pennington lit them up last time and could do so again next Sunday and I can only imagine what Arizona might do to them). While looking better as of late, the OL still has protection issues (Pittsburgh is a bad matchup here, although the game is in Foxboro so that might help).
I think 4-2 is a more reasonable hope, with 5-1 a great success and 3-3 a very real possibility.
