What if i put 5 of these http://fl1.shopmania.org/files/p/rs/t/799/ulozak-za-rucni-frizider-400ml~16858799.jpg inside the fridge and replace them regularly.

Not necessarily so. Several years ago I looked into obtaining a scientific freezer, rated @ -40°C, used $400, and figured out the basics of components & pass-through wiring and submitted it to a couple of friends that are capable of intelligently chiming in; they said that it would work at about the difference of the ambient and freezer design temps divided by two. Very roughly. Depends on system config. In my setup, running 24/7 @ -9°C. The freezer was 'frost proof' according to the spec sheet. And ran off a 110v power source. But the walls were laced with coolant tubing from looking at the schematics, making hole cutting a tricky affair. I ended the thought until now. Maybe someone else can offer more insight?
I don't think that is the kind of fridge he was referring to in the OP.
There are way to many variables to give you a yes or no answer to that. The biggest would be whether or not the CPU is even capable of 6Ghz. Most are not.

For extended cooling like that your best outcome that will cost well under $10,000 US will likely be a phase change cooler. Here is an old guide on how to build one. Sometimes you can get lucky and find someone selling one pre-built but be warned there are some bad builds out there.
The top option by far right now would be LnL coolings LN2 set-up. But you're approaching that $10k mark not including the LN2 that's needed.

Idle temp means nothing. What's the temp after say an hour of prime95?
6 gig 24/7 ain't happening no matter the cooling solution. That is a pipe dream..........a crack pipe dream.

Ok, but how cooler would it be for 5ghz 36°C to be cooled the way I stated in the thread question?

But if I put 10 of these http://fl1.shopmania.org/files/p/rs/t/799/ulozak-za-rucni-frizider-400ml~16858799.jpg on the radiator inside the fridge without connecting power to the fridge(without condenser), how long would then last?

You say the ice will turn into water in a few hours?

Nothing, just for fun, it would be nice to run it at 6ghz all the time.
