Buy a 6mm bore/thread rose joint, and an M5 helicoil to reduce the thread?

I think this is what you need?

eBay Item

Although I'm not sure whether the helicoil size is the 'before' or 'after', so you might need the M5 version.

The OD of a helicoil is a special size, not simply the next size up metric thread.
