I’ve played in 6-point passing TD leagues since I started playing fantasy football in 2002.  Does it change how you should value QBs?  Of course! (Well, a little.  It’s not a massive change.)  I think the main thing to keep in mind is finding a difference maker at QB helps your team just a little bit more than it would have if you found the same difference maker in standard scoring.  For instance Andrew Luck had a great year last year, one that surpassed most preseason expectations.  As much as he helped teams by being a good value in standard scoring, he was that much better in 6 point passing TD leagues.  The stakes are higher for identifying this year’s Andrew Luck if you play in that type of league.
