What do you get if you try 

kbdcontrol -a ukbd0 < /dev/console

at console prompt? I am running -CURRENT, so numpad is recognised and
attached automatically, but 

kbdcontrol -A ukbd0 < /dev/console

detaches it, and 

kdbcontrol -a ukbd0 < /dev/console

attaches it back.

I do not have 6.1 here to try it out, but from my recollections it
should work there as well. 'man kbdcontrol' is your friend.
