Like I said, the data is cherry picked. Why start with FDR? We did have two term presidents before him, you know.

Here is a list of multi-term presidents
en.wikipedia.org

Here is the party divisions in Congress
clerk.house.gov

Here is the list


President Years 6th year change

Washington 1789-1797 1795 -4
Jefferson 1801-1809 1807 +2
Madison 1809-1817 1815 +5
Monroe 1817-1825 1823 hard to determine
Jackson 1829-1837 1837 0
Grant 1869-1977 1875 -96
Cleveland 1885-1889 split across two terms
1893-1897 1895 +168
Wilson 1913-1921 1919 +25
FDR 1933-1945 1939 -78
Eisenhower 1953-1961 1959 -61
Nixon 1969-1974 1974 -52
Reagan 1981-1989 1987 -5
Clinton 1993-2001 1999 +5



Might want to throw Cleveland out. His two terms were not contiguous.

As you can see, there isn't a general, 6th year effect. It is bullshit.
