Why was Santa Clara Mission built in 6 different locations?

Because people would have gotten all confused if they'd put it in Santa Barbara.

Anyway, the question has it exactly backwards.

They didn't put the Santa Clara mission in Santa Clara... they put the Santa Clara mission near an existing native American settlement, and the city grew up around it and took its name from the mission.
