4 wheels will only be touching at one time. HOWEVER, that does not mean that the 2 other wheels wont be used. Throughout the match all 6 wheels would have been used. Lets say you are acceleration forward, so that means that your middle and back wheels will be touching. The you stop, now your robot wants to keep going, so your front and middle wheels are now touching instead of your back. The middle wheels also act as the pivot point. With 4 wheel drive it is harder to turn if not done properly. If you have all six wheels on the ground at once than it is extremely hard to turn.
Hope that helps explain it
