Apologies for the delay in replying. I must admit that "I forgot to do
this upload" is not a great start for requesting an exception to the
norms for updates in stable.

We can't approve anything without seeing what we're being asked to
approve.

You've been a DD for more than long enough to know that version numbers
can't be reused. 6.4.0-1 already exists in the archive, there's no way
you can upload a different package with that version number.
I am slightly confused as to whether the package is actually useful in
Debian or simply part of your own CI setup. Its highest popcon count
appears to have been 3, with frequent drops to 0.
