I believe the problem is that you can't restrict device capabilities after submission. From the iTunes Connect Manage Applications FAQ:

"To change device requirement information after your first binary has been submitted, you must submit an application update in iTunes Connect to provide a new binary with the new information in the UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key. You are permitted to expand your device requirements only. Submitting an update to your binary to restrict your device requirements is not permitted. " [emphasis added]

I've been looking for a way around this, or for Apple to specifically allow removal of armv6 support with the approach of iOS5 release. Crossing fingers. :-/
