My understanding of the rule you're referring to is that the threshold is 60
days, not 6 months. (It's also possible to circumvent in both legal and illegal
ways, though the legal ones require not crossing US state or international
borders, so can't be done before arrival.)

And, as Christian suggested, I couldn't find a trace of it in the import
regulations, though I don't claim to be an expert in those.
