I would use a Blackmagic DeckLink Duo 2.
It has 8 outputs or inputs, (they are configurable).
If the projector does not come with HDSDI, use converters like these:

@ dcaiman - BMD Duo 2 is 4 I/O not 8 so you'd either need to use the Quad 2 or two Duo 2 in order to get 6 SDI outputs.
@ Jamil Chamoun
I would also recommend testing the new BMD Micro SDI to HDMI adapter! They're a great value for the money and I've used it a bunch of them on a tour we just supported and they were super reliable.
Are you trying to sync your 6 outputs?

Better go with Decimator MD-LX than Blackmagic - its almost same price but they are bi-directional, and i have a feeling that more stable and reliable.

@ Warspite - Unfortunately that device is not on the market yet but it does look promising!

I wouldn't, your outputs aren't even close to synced. If you try to blend your pretty boned.
It is the most handy, cost effective way if sync and extra latency isn't an issue.

You have to use the DeckLink Quad 2.
It has 8 outputs or inputs, (they are configurable).
I have a machine with 2 DeckLink Quad 2 and I use 12 outs + 4 inputs.
0 problems.
