You don't understand IPv6 well.. It has an option for pricacy-enhanced "temporary" IPv6 addresses to be used for outbound connections. Windows has this on by default, most linuxes seem to require you to turn it on.
When it is on, a randomly generated short-term IPv6 address is generated when you make an outbound connection. This IP address lives for a short while (until the connection is closed or a few hours, whichever comes later). Windows uses a new one for each new outbound connection (you can have thousands of IPv6 addresses at the same time.
However, if you are worried about your home internet, it doesn't help much. You need either a traceable IPv4 address, or a traceable IPv6 routing prefix, so packets can get to you. They can't tell which machine on your network generated the traffic, but they do know it was from your network.
