Codefox was kind enough to link the schematic. Item 18 is the coil in question and indeed it uses all six terminals. This is the oscillator coil. When measuring, you should get 4 that have very low resistance together and two that are also low. Just clip on to one of the connections and touch the rest of the way around. See if you get 3 others or 1 other. Then move to one of the ones that had high resistance, clip on that and see if you get one other or three others. Your looking for four that are connected to one another and two others that are connect together.
Hope that is not too confusing.
