How to get Java 6 JDK on mavericks

I am trying to get the Java 6 JDK on my mac. I've tried downloading this http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572

But I can't find it in /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines

I already have Java 8 installed, and I don't want to remove it or replace it, I just want to have the Java 1.6 JDK that I can work with on my computer. (Need it to do my mandatory assignemtns for class. Studying Computer Science)

What do I have to do? Thanks in advance!
