I am analysing some traceroutes, I found 6 columns instead of 3 per one hop.
My question : the number of results per hop depends on what?

It depends on the traceroute program.
Each request has exactly one response. Most tools make at least 3 requests so that it would be easier to judge packet loss, jitter, and sometimes even see multiple paths being taken to the same destination.

This depends on if the tracert took a different link on that specific hop per packet sent. Typically, for each hop, 3 packets are sent round trip. And their travel time is what you get as a result in milliseconds. If there are 6 columns, usually, the filler columns are IP addresses/hostnames of different routes taken for that hop. Sometimes can be caused by a load balancer in the path, etc.
