If it's really as high as 6 g per 1/4 cup, how is it considered low carb?

It's used in fairly small amounts relative to the other ingredients. In certain recipes, it's needed to provide gluten so things like yeast, quick breads and cakes can rise, or have a firmer texture. It is never used straight across the board as a flour substitute.
