Are you sure it's a 6 pin connector? Just going off this data sheet

The OEM connector is 6+2 pin, the extra 2 go to a brightness switch inside the case

Open the case, trace the cables and plug your video signal (NTSC) to pin 6 VBS. If you have one of the older raspberries, just hook it up to the composite video connector (the yellow one):

If you have a newer pi, you need to configure and hack a connector to get the video signal out:

Also make sure you tie the grounds together.
