Just to be sure, you can only return 1 creature to your hand with Genesis at the beginning of your upkeep, so paying 6 and returning 2 is not an option :)

You are correct. I went according to my vague paraphrasing of the ability instead of reading the card itself.

The Primus will remain in my graveyard.
