I ran into something similar to this on a lab. Are you sure that you
didn't accidently enable authentication on the area 6 interface on the
next hop router?

router ospf 1000

 area 0 authentication message-digest
 area 6 virtual-link x.x.x.x

Hello,
 
This router has a virtual link to area 0 through area 6. Area 0 is
doing authentication. I could not get the routes on the this router
into the rest of the ospf network unless I added the "area 0
authentication message-digest" on this router. This is very strange
since this router does not have any interfaces in area 0. Unless the
virtual link is like an interface in Area 0. Also, I did not have to
add the password anywhere on the router. Strange. It's almost like
half authentication. Can someone explain this?
 
TIA,
Danny
