Kudos for correct solution.
Here we have 6 people and from 6 people 1 president, 1 vice president and 1 treasurer is choosen.
SO we use the Fundamental counting
i.e 6 * 5 * 4
(For president we have 6 people to choose from, For vice president we are left with 5 people to choose from, For treasure we are left with 4 people to choose from)
= 120
