Has anyone else heard of this email? I dont want our team to get disqualified just for having an extra 6 hours on our robot bag and tag form.

While I haven't heard one way or the other about the email your mentor is referencing, politely (and respectfully) ask him to print it out. If he can't remember where he saw it or can't find it again, I would STRONGLY suggest erring on the side of caution and NOT working on it for more than 6 hours. LIke you said, you would hate to be ruled ineligible because you worked on it for more than 6 hours.
Another route would be the FIRST Q&A forum and see if you can get an official response there.
Either way best of luck!
