Might have been 968, in 2006. I also know that 696 had 6 motors in 2005, as have other teams.

The point is, you don't have to have a crab with 6 motors. Though I see you've edited for clarity, and I do agree with the 6-motor swerve needing a coaxial (otherwise, you've got two motors loose...), unless you have a three-wheel crab, and if you have that, one wheel will have more power if you don't have a coaxial.
