A 5-amp fuse is designed to fail if more than 5 amps goes through it. A 6-amp fuse does likewise with more than 6 amps. Therefore, if you replace a 5-amp fuse with a 6-amp, you might be leaving components vulnerable to damage and wiring vulnerable to overheating, which could start a fire. If you replace a 6-amp with a 5-amp, the fuse will burn out if the circuit is drawing between 5 and 6 amps.
