There was a thread that addressed this issue over on the iMore forums. It should point you down the right road, although this thread was for an iPhone 4. 

 

One of the posts laid out a process that should be helpful: 

 

1. exit Redsn0w, and unplug device

2. plug device back in, enter DFU mode, do not open Redsn0w yet.

3. if have not done extract Redsn0w file to a location such as desktop.

4. right click/ properties/ compatibility, check run as administration service pack 3

5. open Redsn0w/ Extras –>Select IPSW –> select the 6.0 IPSW

6. Go back, Jailbreak and install Cydia and then once the jailbreak is done and phone booted on, turn off your phone.

7. Exit Redsn0w, unplug your device, plug it back in and put the phone into DFU mode! Open Redsn0w!

8. In Redsn0w go to extras –>select IPSW (6.0).

9. Extras –>Just Boot>>
