I can see why you'd only get 6 guys together for a physical "6 pack" line-up.

But for a photo lineup I can't imagine why you don't have least 25 photos to pick from.

Excellent point. In fact, the entire process of showing the witness the photos should be recorded, and double blind. I.e the officer showing the person should not know anything about the lineup.
