So it wasn't an EGPWS warning as such, merely an advisory that you have descended below a bugged RA height.
How would an EGPWS mode 6 warning be triggered and indicated, to differentiate it from a descent below bugged RA advisory? I think what you are saying is they are one and the same.
As I understand it, Mode 6 is a customer decided preset altitude read out, and gives the actual altitude (or more correctly height as we know it with reference to rad alt) if the customer has chosen 200 ft to be called in mode 6, then that's what is says, TWO HUNDRED. the preset / default is 'ONE HUNDRED'
