if you are talking about getting a roll that totals 6 - there is only one way to roll that - get all ones. as such there are 6^6 -1 = 46656 -1 = 46655 other ways to roll the dice. so the odds of not rolling a total of 6 with 6 dice is 46655/46656 = .~99.997857%.

If you are talking about not rolling a 6 on ANY of the dice, there are 5 ways to roll each die that will give you something other than 6 so the number of ways to not roll any 6's is 5^6 = 15625. That means the odds of not rolling any 6's on 6 dice is 15625/46656 = ~38.489798%
