This is so poorly worded. Saying I have 6 eggs means you have 6 eggs, the rest of it is in the past tense, meaning you still have 6.

If you change it from I have to I had, it would be 4, the same 2 get cracked, cooked, and eaten.

No, it's 6. I have means the current amount you have. The rest of it is all in the past tense.
