Your mom's sixth divorce: the sixth divorce belonging to your mom. In this case "mom's" is a possessive singular noun. It feels like an adjective, because it's describing a sixth divorce, but is technically a noun.

Where are you getting sixth divorce from?

They're just being (in my opinion) pretty damn funny.

They're being ridiculous by saying your mom has been divorced six times or more. Which is highly unlikely. It doesn't affect what they're actually talking about. I like absurd shit like that.
