How does this set you up for a CE?
If there are 6 fouls, and you call another -- when you look, there will be 7, and you'll shoot the 1-1.
NOT putting the fouls up, could set you up for the CE -- if the 6 stays up there for too long (and the book doesn't tell you it was the 7th), you might administer a throw-in instead of shooting FTs
