Yes, that's one of the main goals. They are encouraging affordable 6-plexes in the hopes of making housing in the city more affordable. Note that there is a rent ceiling based on the area, you can't build a 6-plex and charge whatever you want.

Indeed, the 6 plex is not profitable for developers seeking a quick buck. That exception is meant for non profits who want to fund affordable housing.
