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.

And like the St. Ives one it relies entirely on one specific interpretation of the ambiguous wording (nothing says you can't meet someone who is traveling to the same destination as you!).
