Bad advice, as this hardcodes your version number to 6...

better to do as another has suggested and to install 
fedora-release-6-4.noarch.rpm which updates your $releasever to 6. Then 
with 'yum update' the fun will start....

I suggest you backup your data first if you do this. 
A FC(n) ->FC(n+1) is reasonable but still not really recommended, normally it 
works for most people. FC(n) -> FC(n+2) is not so well tested...
