What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
something like this?

Code:
Sub DelRow()


LastRowNo = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row


For RowLoop = LastRowNo To 2 Step -1
    If Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & RowLoop).Value < 100000 Or IsNumeric(Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & RowLoop).Value) = False Then
        Rows(RowLoop & ":" & RowLoop).Delete
    End If
Next RowLoop
End Sub

How about
Code:
Sub delRows()
   With Range("B2", Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
      .Value = Evaluate(Replace("if((isnumber(@))*(len(@)=6),@,"""")", "@", .Address))
      .SpecialCells(xlBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
   End With
End Sub
