Why not simply use a mkv with a cover instead of the video stream?
Why the 6 fps, i mean when using just one image the fps should matter?
Why are you using crf ?
Why the '-scrict -2' ?
Also your encoding will probably be (a lot) faster if you specify the '-r 6' before the "-i image".
How fast is:
for you?
(Also if you have an nvida cpu or intel cpu with a graphic processor you might want to use nvenc or qsvenc instead of x264)

Ps.: your goal shouldn't be a higher cpu utilization, but higher speed. Since you basically tell the encoder to do nothing it's to be expected that the cpu utilization isn't high.

ffmpeg -y -loop 1 -r 6 -i <path to image> -i <path to audio> -c:v libx264 -q:v 23 -preset ultrafast -c:a copy -shortest <path to output>(Also if you have an nvida cpu or intel cpu with a graphic processor you might want to use nvenc or qsvenc instead of x264)
