Sis. They only got 6 million because the Hannah Montana one hour special where Miley FINALLY revealed her secret was its lead in. All the other shows premiered after the premiere of a Disney Channel Original Movie. Hannah came after Cowbells, Wizards came after Twitches Two, Austin & Ally came after Good Luck Charlie, It's Christmas and Liv & Maddie came after Teen Beach Movie.
A DCOM movie isn't going to draw in as many people as Miley revealing her secret. Plain and simple.
And at the end of the day, Shake It Up only got 78 episodes and three seasons. Hannah Montana got 98 with 4 seasons and Wizards got 107 with 4 seasons. Austin & Ally is going to have a fourth season as well. So Shake It's Up impact, despite having a higher premiere rating, obviously is lower than what the other three shows are.
