but you probably do not have a dual 3 ohm sub. Just because you measured that with your DMM doesn't mean it's 3 ohms. Subwoofers are rated in impedence which is AC. Your DMM measures Resistance which is DC. The two measurements are different. Just because they are both rated in ohms does not mean anything.

6 or 1.5

that was my 1st guess just thought that since d4's wire to 1 that d3's would be less not thinking about d2's

or 6/2+1.5

Series doubles the impedance and Parallel cuts in half, right?

correct

Then how come 3x single 4 ohm subs would be a final load of 1.3?
