I just updated a comment I made in the other thread and it seems as though it MIGHT fit in here as well:

I believe US-29 and I-66 in Virginia qualify. US-29 crosses I-66 six times and there's an interchange at, or adjacent to, each crossing, although the four inside the Beltway are all partial interchanges (I-66 inside the Beltway has only a single full interchange with any road and it's not US-29).

When I made the comment above I forgot about the additional partial junction between US-29 and the eastern end of I-66 in the District of Columbia.

It's the final partial junction in the District of Columbia that might not count, but I'm not certain of precisely where the eastern endpoint of I-66 is so I'll leave it to someone else to determine whether that point qualifies as a seventh "crossing." Two ramps connect I-66 directly to and from the Whitehurst Freeway portion of US-29 and I just don't know if either of those counts as part of I-66 (and I'm too lazy to look it up somewhere). The eastbound (actually going north at this point) roadway still has two lanes when it passes under the K Street part of US-29 before splitting into two ramps, though, so it might be considered "close enough" depending on your point of view.

This doesn't need a thread. In fact, we never need a thread whose sole purpose is to sarcastically poke fun at another thread/poster. Let's not venture into this territory again going forward.
