Due to the peak holiday season, I would not call any of the following deals, but they aren't the worst considering the time of year. (I am hoping someone can find something better, as I did not have a ton of time to look, but it's getting ugly out there)
SFO-DFW-BOS-CLT-SFO IS 6050 miles for $373 on 12/21. You'd need another quick turn on top of this to get the full miles you need, unless you can work another leg into this itinerary without breaking the price. There are some SFO-LAX turns this week for $161.
SFO-DFW-RSW-ORD-SFO is $347 for $5628 on 12/21. Even better on 12/22 as SFO-ORD-RSW-ORD-SFO for the same price, 6086 miles. But both of these are still short of what you need and will require an additional flight or leg.
SFO-PHX-OGG-PHX-SFO is $543 tomorrow 12/15. 6991 miles. Same routing is $557 on 12/23. This gets it all done in one trip.
Most of the above involve a red-eye in one direction.
I am hoping someone can find something better but it's a yuck time of year for deals.

Whats the exact mileage you need?
If dates are flexible there is...
SFO-LAX-PHL-LGA on 12/17
Spend a night
LGA-PHL-SFO on 12/18
Total miles with minimum 500 miles per segment = 6422
for $459.20
For $3 more, add LAX on the return from PHL and you'll cover it with 6800 miles earned
