Achieving pagination with `query_posts`

Try this:

$paged = get_query_var( 'paged' ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;

$args = array(
    'posts_per_page' => 5,
    'category'       => 6,
    'order'          => 'DESC',
    'paged'          => $paged,
);

Currently, you are setting The paged argument to 1.
