A starter that does not have a solenoid and lever to engage the drive in the ring gear depends on inertia to engage the drive. The armature must spin up fast enough to spin the drive out to engage the ring gear before it starts to turn with the armature. Using 12 volts will make the armature spin up faster and reduce the chance that the drive will already be spinning when it gets to the ring gear. My experience has been that 12 volts causes less problem with the ring gear teeth being damaged that a starter run on 6 volts. 12 volts does cause more stress on the drive spring and it not unusual to see damage there. The newer style drive reduces those problems.
