6 motor drivetrain gearboxes

Just from my own curiousness, how do teams that use 6 motors on their drivetrains get the gearboxes right, since the RS-775 turns at 19500 RPM and the cim only turns at around 5500 RPM. I assume that the motors need to be turning at the exact same speed so the motors aren't trying to turn a wheel at two different speeds. If someone could explain how the gearboxes are designed, or better yet show me a CAD file of one of the gearboxes, that would be great.
