Default Laptop - 6 monitor set up, cant get 60hz to keep

Hello, strange issue, would love some advice.

I have 6 monitors, 5 are attached to a Display Link usb hub using the 4k hdmi adapters. The main monitor is connected via hdmi to the laptop.

I have 3 on top, 3 below

The 3 on top are:
Left(1920x108060hz), Middle(2560x144060hz), Right(1920x108060hz)

The 3 below were:
Left(1920x108060hz), Middle(2560x144060hz), Right(1920x108060hz)

It is the left bottom that I replaced with a 4k monitor that I am trying to run in 2560x144060hz. It comes up in 30hz, but when I change it to 60hz, it immediately becomes in display properties monitor management the right most monitor. At this point it is in 60hz and everything works fine, but the moment I move it back to its correct position in the interface and hit apply, it reverts to 30hz. I change it to 60hz and it then is moved to the right bottom in the interface. If I change it to 1920x108060hz, it stays in the bottom left and has no issues.

Any idea what is going on here? It makes no sense to me that simply putting this in a higher resolution forces it to be my right most monitor in the interface. I have tried a different adapter and a different 4k monitor in 2560x144060hz, same issue.

Thanks for any assistance.

PS Is there a fix yet for nVidia control panel not working correctly when displaylink adapters are running? I was going to try to use their multi monitor controls but it doesnt exist unless I unplug all displaylink monitors from the computer.
