I know that there are 6 pieces on the board but after promotion to knight there
are no pawns and I know that part of the 6 piece tablebases with no pawns exist.

KQ vs KNNN is one of the 6 piece tablebases that is relatively more easy to
build because there are many pieces that are the same

The size of the this tablebase is 6  times smaller then a tablebase when the
pieces are different like
KQ vs KRBN
