if i sand the shaft down from 6mm to 5mm, i think there will be more risk about getting it straight than drilling the pinion. atleast its better to risk a pion than the shaft.

Yes the drill bit will follow the original hole, BUT a handheld drill will not give you a clean straight hole creating vibration. Sanding the shaft can work better and if you have to drill out the pinion use a drill press to keep the hole straight.
