Think of Ohm's Law....where, in any given circuit, volts = amps x resistance. If the resistance is the same, a 12V circuit only has to carry HALF the amps of a 6V circuit to do an equal amount of work. And it's the current [amps] and not the volts that are the concern. So if the switch is rated for 6V, it'll be MORE than heavy enough to carry the current required for the same starter load on 12V...because at 12V, you're only running [approximately] HALF the amps through the circuit.
John T, please correct me if I'm wrong...but I don't think I am.
