I don't think all 6 huddled up to make the call. I think the call was made by the PU after asked for help from the BU. After that, I think the six got together to discuss the rule--what happens to Jeter? Does he go to second, or does he go to first?

Of course, I doubt any of the other umpires besides the PU and BU at 1st were discussing the call because they shouldn't have been looking at it. However, in football (which is the sport I do) the officials will often come together not to discuss the call but to discuss the rule to make sure we all agree we're applying it correctly.
