Hi shahidul1,
When you say you, "removed a phone but now have it back" it sounds like it was lost but recovered. Before it was lost it had a 4 digit passcode on it, but now is is asking for six digits.
No, there is no default passcode on the iPhone. It is setup by the user.
If you are using Two-factor authentication however it will want a six-digit code.

iOS 9 also defaults to a six-digit passcode.

If you can't use your passcode, please see this article

Best regards.
