When I downshift from sixth to third in order to accelerate, will me smashing the gas as I let off the clutch override the rev correction the SRM system does?

The SRM will work in ANY downshift situation to match the revs. You won't 'mash' the accelerator fast enough to throw off SRM. As soon as you bring the gear shifter out of one gear, you get an initial blip to get the revs spinning faster. As you then bring the shifter into the lower gear, the car will immediately match the revs for the lower gear (and hold them if you are slow on releasing the clutch).
I suppose you could theoretically screw up the SRM by never letting off the accelerator when you downshift. You'd just hit the rev limiter as you clutch and declutch...not sure why you would do that though.
Bottom line...go drive the car and it will all make sense.
