    The NFL record is 6, Ernie Nevers, Chicago Cardinals, 1929.

    Edit: Here's my source - Gale Sayers isn't even mentioned so I'm not sure where that's coming from??? Was it perhaps in college?http://www.nfl.com/history/randf/records/indiv/rushing

    EDIT November 19 2006: Here we go, Sayers' scores weren't all rushing touchdowns: http://commerce.thinkwebinc.com/retro-jersey/sayers-about.html
    "On December 12, the next-to-last week of the season, playing on a muddy field that might have stalled most runners, Sayers scored a record-tying six touchdowns as the Bears annihilated the San Francisco 49ers, 61-20. His TDs came on an 80-yard pass reception, rushes of 21, 7, 50, and 1 yards, and an 85-yard punt return. For the day, the Bears ace amassed 336 combined yards.

    I believe it was Gale Sayers with 6 or 7.
