Why is it when installing the 6kc filter in position 1 and configure it for
6kc then go to AM I can only widen it to 5Kc

Bruce,

The 6 kHz filter is at the IF frequency. passband
AM is a double sideband transmission which means that the audio is only
1/2 of the IF passband width - 3kHz.

The passband displayed by the K3 is the audio passband.  A 5 kHz width
would equate to a 10 kHz IF passband.
