Usually pasta will increase to twice its size by being cooked. For 6lbs uncooked, I would estimate 3lbs raw.
A cup is a measurement of volume, and a pound is a measurement of weight so, the conversion between the two will vary..
1lb (450g) butter or margarine = 2 cups (or four sticks).
1lb (450g) flour = 4 cups.
1lb 450 g, granulated or caster, (superfine), sugar = 2 cups.
1lb 450 g, icing sugar (confectioners' sugar) = 3 cups.
