See output of: dnf provides /usr/lib64/qt6

First of all, /usr/lib isn't i686-only, but for arch-specific files such
as shared libraries there is the multi-lib setup where e.g. 64-bit files
go into /usr/lib64 and 32-bit files go into /usr/lib, so that one can
install both without conflicts. That is why the Qt6 base package owns
/usr/lib for i686 and /usr/lib64 for x86_64, for example.

However, based on that one cannot conclude who may have created /usr/lib/qt6
on your machine. It may be some other package that stores files in a
directory _below_ (!) /usr/lib/qt6 and owns files there. It would be a
packaging mistake. Query ownership of files below /usr/lib/qt6.
