Has anyone installed the Oak-Grigsby 6-Position switch in their Stats yet? I'm looking for a wiring diagram for mine.

Nice option.
I'd have to spend some time to wire the tone controls, but the normal 5-way plus neck+bridge would be, looking at the left side of figure 3, top to bottom 1-2-3-4-5-6:
1 - Bridge
2 - Middle
3 - Neck
4 - Jumper to 1
5 - To Volume pot

Unfortunately, you would still need a toggle/PP/S1 to have the option for all 3 pickups, and that already provides the Bridge/Neck combination, so it's actually a bit more flexible:

Switch Open
1 - Bridge
2 - Bridge/Middle
3 - Middle
4 - Middle/Neck
5 - Neck

Switch Closed
1 - Bridge/Neck
2 - Bridge/Middle/Neck
3 - Middle
4 - Bridge/Middle/Neck
5 - Bridge/Neck

This option can also be done without modifying the PG... the 6-position switch requires that the slot be lengthened.

Here ya go... Blue jumper on the right side is optional, it puts the middle and bridge pickups both on the rear tone pot.
No jumper needed to the 6th lug on the right, the bridge/neck combo will be controlled by the front tone pot.

Sort of Gilmour mod without the 2-way toggle.

It gives you the option to use bridge & neck pickups in parallel, though.
