Missing time of existence

according to bible God created everything in six (6) days (which is equivalent to 6,000 years in earth's time). If God created everything in 6,000 years, and the first man was created on the 6,000th year, how come scientists discovered bones of animals or dinosaurs that were said to exist hundreds of million years ago? If we give attention on time frame from Adam's generation to present, I think there are missing years, millions of years, that were not recorded in the bible. for those missing years, what did happen? Was there another prophet God sent after Adam and Eve? Were there any other miracles happened during those years? Or it is as simple as bible should not be the basis for existence?

Look, the bible is the original fairy story and a really bigone. It is so full of rubbish if you try to take it literally. It is a good story, obviously added to over generations with little smatterings of current events thrown in. That is the thing that encourages people to believe in it. If one day is equal to 1000 years in the bible then some of those old dudes who lived hundreds of year, how old would they be? Or are we saying the time scales in that good old book keep varying so as to confuse the reader. As I said, some good stories but not to be taken literally or regarded as much more than a good yarn.
