If we draw a vertical line from point P to the x-axis, we get a RIGHT triangle in which OP is the hypotenuse of that right triangle, and the y-coordinate of point P is the length of one of the legs of the right triangle.
Since the hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle, we know that the y-coordinate of P is less than 6.
