Isn't that quite clear how the order should be? I have added those
disks to the create array in that order 0,1,2,3,4,5
Should I try something else?

What is meant by '0,1,2,3,4,5'? You mean some order of /dev/sd{x,y,z,...}.
Now the disk names may be different from your old setup. This is normal.
You need to use the Serial Numbers to have the correct order.
So in this case I see
	0 sdb Z305RFDP now sdx
	1 sdg Z305RTB8 now sdy
	etc.

Or maybe you already did this, so ignore this note.

I was wondering if the problem is unused space? The only disk having
it partition table have this:
Unused Space : before=254896 sectors, after=7856 sectors

So if creating a new array starts from the wrong place? Can that be
somehow inspected?

I was able to get the order of the devices from old syslog file
(smartd) and then created the array again:
(...)
Running fsck caused so many errors that the mounted ext4 was empty.
I reset the overlay array and now I'm running analyze with testdisk.

Then I am afraid that the order was wrong and testdisk will not be able
to retrieve much.
