(edited because I might have found a better answer)

"How can I enter all 6 digits of my IRS PIN in Turbotax? The form is only allowing me to enter 5 digits."

"The 6-digit code you have is your Identity Protection PIN (IP PIN) - that is different from the 5-digit PIN that is your electronic signature. Please see the TurboTax FAQ below for how to enter your IP PIN."

There's a link to help:
