My IP PIN is 6 digits and Turbo Tax will only let me enter 5 digits.

The 5-digit code in TurboTax is a self-select PIN which you can use to verify your identity. It is not the IRS PIN.

See this TurboTax Help article.

To enter your IRS IP PIN, follow these steps:

In TurboTax Online, open your return
Click on Search (magnifying glass icon) at the top right of your screen
In the Search box, enter IP PIN and click Enter
In the search result box, click on Go to IP PIN
TurboTax will take you directly to the section where you can enter your IRS IP PIN.
