Simply push 100 people up the aisle? Sure, the first one or two might get knifed, but attackers couldn't possibly withstand the crush.
The 9/11 hijackings relied on the fact that a "hijacking" was considered to be something like being diverted to Canada/Mexico/Cuba and then being let go. Annoying, but no point in putting your life at risk.
Once the knowledge that the hijackers were doing a suicide run got out the people no longer sat still (see Flight 93).
6 people can't possibly stop all 100 people in the confined space of an airplane with mere knives.
