I believe he only has 5 horcruxes. LV wants Harry's death to be 
involved in creating the final Horcrux. The only sense I could ever 
make out of the Prophecy-Weapon was that LV wanted it to be a Horcrux 
i.e. a Horcrux that only he or Harry could touch - and Harry would be 
dead! (of course that does rather depend on whether if the prophecy was 
placed back in the 'Hall of Prophecies', the same limlitations on who 
could touch it would remain).

We also know that Gryffindor's sword remains at Hogwarts. IMO, this is 
probably what LV was after in offering to teach at Hogwarts. DD is also 
no longer around to protect it. Therefore, I can imagine that LV would 
be salivating at the prospect of using Harry to create a Gryffindor 
Horcrux.

As for where Nagini came from, I have heard it said that she could be 
LV's split Patronus. Not sure I believe that though!
