David,
In addition to what i had said before also note a couple of things:
1. U cannot use Peer-groups with Route-reflectors. If u want to use peer groups with route -reflectors then u would have to disable the "route-reflector-client" on the RR (which u dont want to bcoz the clients are not fully meshed). Look at thsi BGP link under Multiple RRs within a Cluster - last para.Watch the wrap.

Also the RR scenario is used to overcome the full -mesh requirements of IBGP. So its is used but in ur case since the clients get the routes from RR i guess they get only the BGP best path selected by R6 the RR as also mentioned by someone else.
Try using two RR such that the lower 2 routers R2 and R5 get their routes form 2 RR's and see if it makes a difference.
Hope that helps.
Annu.
