I file in my 6 digit pin with the help of Turbotax but when I proceed to E-file the number is requested again but in a box that is limited to 5 digits.

The 6 digit PIN you entered is your Identity Protection PIN issued by the IRS.

The 5 digit PIN in the File section of the program is for e-filing the tax return. You can select and enter any 5 digit e-filing PIN.
