Because it doesn’t contain the necessary hardware to run anything higher than ios 12.

The iPhone 6 was originally released in 2014. It was discontinued in 2016. It stopped getting major ios updates after ios 12. It did get a security update recently to 12.5.6, but that’s as far as it’s going to go. it is not compatible with iOS 13 or later.
