Zener diodes are highly doped diodes. This means their behavior in forward bias will be same as a normal diode. But while in reverse bias their junction potential is increased. ... So that means when the voltage crosses 6V then the diode is in Reverse breakdown and hence the current through the diode increases rapidly.
