Some people have said, use a unadorned staff for zero, and six being a triangle in the other direction instead; that is what I thought too, and some other people also do.

I also wrote a program in PostScript to draw Cistercian numbers (which uses the nonstandard sign for 6):

  % Specify a four-digit number as the command-line argument.
  /A ARGUMENTS 0 get def
  
  /Digit {
    get 48 sub {
      {} %0
      {24 0 rlineto} %1
      {0 -24 rmoveto 24 0 rlineto} %2
      {24 -24 rlineto} %3
      {0 -24 rmoveto 24 24 rlineto} %4
      {24 0 rlineto -24 -24 rlineto} %5
      {24 -24 rlineto -24 0 rlineto} %6 (nonstandard)
      {24 0 rlineto 0 -24 rlineto} %7
      {0 -24 rmoveto 24 0 rlineto 0 24 rlineto} %8
      {24 0 rlineto 0 -24 rlineto -24 0 rlineto} %9
    } exch get exec stroke
  } bind def
