It's not 6 weeks of pregnancy as measure from the previous period. It's a heartbeat law and the heartbeat is detectable roughly six weeks after gestation, which would be roughly week 8.
Thanks for the correction, I see that I am wrong. The Texas law is based on a detectable heartbeat, which while it is short period it should be enough time for most people.
