Sulfur has 6 outer shell electrons, as do all other atoms in column 16 of a wide form Periodic Table, in the usual chemical meaning. A physicist, especially a spectroscopist, might well consider only the 3p electrons of sulfur the outer shell, since the 3s electrons have a detectably lower energy level. On that view, sulfur would contain 4 outer shell electrons.
