If you have two children that make you eligible for the 3,000 each, so 6,000 total, you should have received half, which would have been 3,000.

If you are eligible for a 6,000 credit and you received 3,000 in advance payments, that could result in a 3,000 increase in your refund. 

You might look over your 1040 to see if that is what happened.
