You have successfully measured the resistance of the voice coil, not the impedance of the speaker.

Polk RT1000P are 8ohm speakers. The receiver is shutting off from either a) heat or b) a short on the output stage, either a shorted voice coil or wire touching at the back of the speaker or amp.

An multimeter on an 8ohm speaker will very often read 5-6 ohms resistance.
