Looks like a 5♦ opening to me.
6♦ will lead to playing 6♦x 90+% of the time. I don't rate the outcome to be good enough in the long run. Prefer 5♦ which I'd expect to buy 50-60% of the time - which is more reasonable IMO.

I understand the concerns about 6D but I don't agree with the outcome. When we hold two voids, the chances the opponents are distributional as well is also very high. I think you are deluding yourself if the opponents are automatically going to let you play at the 5 level when they are red / white.
Its very likely they will bid 5 over 5 here. How happy are you? I'm wouldn't be and I would be sorely tempted to compete to 6♦.
6♦ x'd is probably a good sac against a game. Expecting to buy it for 5D x'd isn't realistic.

How about 11 to the Jack?
I don't know if this was meant to be a joke, but lol if it wasn't.
