ULPT Request: company I used to work for is now defunct. Can I fudge my employment dates?

I worked for a now defunct startup, but ragequit within 6 months. Around 6 months later, I found another job, and I’ve been at this job for ~4 years. Around 1 year after I left, the startup was dissolved.

Im on the job hunt again, and I want to avoid explaining my 6 month gap in employment to future employers. I’m considering just lying and saying that my last day at the start up was a few weeks before I started my current job. Would anyone be able to catch me in my lie?
