Would I be right in thinking that 6 relays is enabled by default on this firmware and the is no need to edit the relaystate.py file. Do i just need to update the GPIO file with the relay pinout?

I'm assuming you are referring to a Raspberry PI running Venus OS. Other platforms have limited numbers of relays that can't be increased.
I believe the stock relaystate.py file only has two relays. Adding additional relays to gpio_list is not enough to get all 6 working.
Look at my RpiGpioSetup package. It does everything you probably need:
