Six inches from the beater bar brush, or six inches from the motor? And, it will of course depend on the particular vacuum cleaner motor's magnetic field. In the interest of caution, I wouldn't bring the motor that close to my tapes.

A second consideration of electrical fields, which you haven't raised as an issue in your case - although maybe you don't know - is storing tapes in proximity to electrical wiring, typically within a nearby wall. My general rule of thumb, for longterm storage, is to keep tapes at least three feet from any active AC wiring.
