Doubt it.
The statement that was made was:
"Maybe the house is too small for a family of 6."
The statement was not backed up with any occupancy regulations as put forth by the OP's local housing authority. A discriminatory statement was made.

Its not about the size of nor the number of bedrooms.
It is against the law to discourage any person from viewing and/or renting a unit because that person belongs to a protected class (Familiar Status).

Familiar status means married, unmarried, divorced, widowed, etc. As far as I know, it doesn't apply to size of family, but I am willing to be educated on that if I am wrong.
You can not fashion your occupancy limited to avoid children. But you do have the right to limit your occupancy based on reasonable standards. (Number of bedrooms, size of the house/rooms, plumbing, that sort of thing.)
