Since the previous rolls do not affect the outcome of the subsequent rolls, it's always a 1in6 chance, no matter the number of rolls.

Just like every flip of a coin is always 50/50.
Hmmm, I don't think I explained what I mean well enough and I can't find this on the websites I checked, because the websites only talk about getting the same number of every dice rolled at once.

I know that every single roll will always be 1 in 6. But if you take a 6-sided dice and decide you are going to roll it 100 times. It can't be just a 1 in 6 chance that you will hit a 6 during those 100 rolls. I don't mean 1 in 6 for each roll. I mean the chance of hitting a 6 period, after all is said and done. Not the amount of 6's, or independently factoring each roll. Just getting a 6 at all.
