Actually your mother would have seven pedals on her harp - one for each note A-G. The pedals attach to the upper mechanism with steel rods inside the column. The upper mechanism has, if I remember from my tour of Lyon & Healy, over 1500 parts. There are scores of linkages and cams to change the effective length of all of the strings of the same note (A, for example) at the same time. It is a fascinating instrument.
Did ya see what I just did there? Did ya?! I took the lame old Napolean Dynamite joke, "Your mom goes to college..." and I adapted it to better suit a comment for this story by changing out the part about your mom going to college to the falsified fact that she too has 6 pedals on her harp and that in some way you should be offended, sarcastically speaking of course, that I would even mention this fact about your mother in public. I truly am a dishonorable ass for doing so. My sincerest apologies to you...and your mother...who has 6 pedals on her harp.
