أيها الناس، إن الله خلق السموات والأرض في ستة أشهر، ثم استوى على العرش

O people, indeed Allah created the heavens and the earth in six months, then rose over the Throne.

سِتَّةِ six

This is the number 'six', heading a possessive-style pairing with the counted noun after it, 'six of months'. As the owner-term it takes the genitive ending here because the preposition 'in' governs it, and the noun it counts follows in its own genitive.
