Perhaps something like this:

%%%%%%%%%%

% inspired from http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=261

#(define (double-time one two three four)
  (markup #:override '(baseline-skip . 0) #:number
   (#:line ((#:column (one two)) #:vcenter "|" (#:column (three four))))))

\relative {
  \time 3/1
  \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
  \override Staff.TimeSignature #'text = #(double-time "6" "2" "3" "1" )
  f1 e2 d e f | g1. f2 e1
}

%%%%%%%%%%%

You can replace the "|" character with a space if you prefer.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Valentin
