I'm a little confused as to why you chose a radius of 6000 light years. Doesn't the YEC viewpoint not necessarily preclude the possibility of stars being created in situ at arbitrarily large distances from Earth?
​
Without additional hypotheses YEC precludes us SEEING stars that are more distant. If the universe is 6000 years old we could not see light from stars more than 6000 light-years away - unless some other factor is involved.
