I vaguely recall B6 and magnesium work together.
Not sure what on exactly.
Perhaps the are both needed by some enzymes?If that's true, then increasing magnesium(if you were short on it) would allow your body to use all the B6 available. I think they're called cofactors, magnesium and B6 are both cofactors?
Having optimal amounts of both together should allow an increase in the enzymes, or whatever if needed to make more of neurotransmitters/hormones required.
