Heard the people on the dead person's side say there is no excuse for six shots.
In the stress of a true self-defense encounter, it is very unlikely that the shooter will be able to accurately determine how many shots were fired or to control how many shots were fired.

A friend of mine does a lot of hog hunting and videos most of his shots and those of the people he hunts with. Hunting is much lower stress than self-defense and in a much more controlled situation. In spite of that, he's found that on more than one occasion, the videos show that he and his hunting partners have taken more shots than they remembered or intended. In one case, a hunter swore that he only shot once but the video showed that he not only fired more than once, he actually made good hits on two different hogs.
