You can use this as custom format script:
if(event.value)
event.value = util.printf("%06d", event.value);

    Just be aware the above code will not change the actual field value, only the way it is displayed.
    If you export or copy it, it will still be without those zeros.

    Thanks, @try67, I do need to keep original value and show zeroes just for display.
