It’s interesting though because there’s some leeway with the interpretation. See the link below for the relevant part of the constitution and some discussion by Chief Justice John Marshall, as it related to Aaron Burr’s treason trials.
Here’s an excerpt:
He stated: On the contrary, if war be actually levied, that is, if a body of men be actually assembled for the purpose of effecting by force a treasonable purpose, all those who perform any part, however minute, or however remote from the scene of action, and who are actually leagued in the general conspiracy, are to be considered as traitors. But, Chief Justice Marshall emphasized, there must be an actual assembling of men, for the treasonable purpose, to constitute a levying of war.
Based on that, and the actual assembling of rioters who stormed the capitol, I could see some interpretation where Treason fits with Jan 6.
