Each bond consists of 2 shared electrons.
So, 6 electrons means 3 bonds (triple bond).

Bonds formed by two atoms sharing electrons are called covalent bonds. Each covalent bond is made up of two electrons that are shared by each atom. If six electrons are shared then there are three bonds. This is called a triple covalent bond. Usually each atom will also have an unbonded pair of electrons or another bond shared with another atom.
