I created this mate-in-6 while composing. There is only one solution. It is not obvious at first glance. Please try without engines so you can find and enjoy the idea yourself. I would like to see your thoughts!

.I partially figured it out
SPOILER
My first thought when looking at this puzzle was Qa8 to limit the mobility of black bishop. h6 and g6 are the only legal moves.
if g6, Qf8 h6 Nf7 Kh7 Qh6#
if h6, Ke4 hxg5 Kf5 g4 ( if Kh7 then Qe8 I couldn't figure it out after :P ) Kg6 g3 Qf8 g2 Qg7#

@openingsmatter621616, you have the right idea. But not at that moment. qa8 h6 ke4 hxg5 kf5 kh7! No mate-in-6.
