Make sure to first enter the music in non-multimeasure rest mode; just leave the appropriate number of measure untouched (so skip 6 measures, then enter notes into the 7th, for example).
Then turn on multimeasures (M) and musescore will combine all consecutive empty measures into one multimeasurerest with the number showing how many measures it combined.

Also, keep in mind you should never normally have to do this manually. Multimeasure rests are only for parts, not for the full score. So when you enter your notes for the full score, all is as it should be - no multimeasure rests. When you use File / Parts to generate parts, the multimeasure rests are turned on automatically.

The only time you would ever need to create the manually is if for some reason you are entering music for only a single part without the rest of the score. In that case, simple leave the number of empty measures you want, and then when you're done, hit M and the empty measures get combined as they should. So still, just a still keypress.
