You can just seek through the file by right-clicking in the video window.
The video width represents the entire duration of the file, so
right-clicking horizontally in the middle seeks to the halfway point of the
video.

But for your specific request, use

ffplay in.mp4 -vf "select='lt(mod(t,60),6)',setpts=N/FRAME_RATE/TB" -af
"aselect='lt(mod(t,60),6)',asetpts=N/SR/TB"
