In /etc/inittab, change this line:

T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100

to this:

T0:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100

The reason it isn't set for 1 and 6 is because they are not useful, and
init needs to shut everything down on those runlevels (else / wont be able
to umount).
