The eyelid skin is thinbut despite this it is difficult to ruin your result by rubbing. See your doctor for reassurance or revision.

Rubbing you eyes 6 days after treatment is unlikely to change the filler.  For the first 24-48 hours, I believe it is possible to affect the fillers and recommend not to rub or massage the area.

It is unlikely that you have caused a problem with yoru juvederm six days after injection. However an exam may be in order to see how things look.  Follow-up with yoru doctor.
