Nexus 6 not supported in Play Store

Question

I've a Nexus 6 (1440 x 2560 pixels (~493 ppi pixel density)) and a LG G3 (1440 x 2560 pixels (~538 ppi pixel density)) and this manifest:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          package="..."
          android:installLocation="preferExternal"
          android:versionCode="..."
          android:versionName="...">

            android:required="true"/>
    <uses-feature

            android:required="true"/>

    <uses-feature

        <screen

        <screen

        <screen
                android:screenDensity="480"
                android:screenSize="small"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="640"
                android:screenSize="small"/>

        <!-- all normal size screens -->
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="mdpi"
                android:screenSize="normal"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="hdpi"
                android:screenSize="normal"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="xhdpi"
                android:screenSize="normal"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="480"
                android:screenSize="normal"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="640"
                android:screenSize="normal"/>

        <!-- all large size screens -->
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="mdpi"
                android:screenSize="large"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="hdpi"
                android:screenSize="large"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="xhdpi"
                android:screenSize="large"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="480"
                android:screenSize="large"/>
        <screen
                android:screenDensity="640"
                android:screenSize="large"/>
    </compatible-screens>

The LG G3 can download the app but the Nexus 6 can't. What am I missing here?
Thanks.

EDIT: Haresh Chhelana answer is right although this is more hack rather a solution. I think Google should change the supports-screens not just to enable screen compatibility mode (pretty useless in my opinion) but to exclude some devices. It's more logical something like:

<supports-screens 
    android:smallScreens="true"
    android:normalScreens="true"
    android:largeScreens="true"
    android:xlargeScreens="false"
    android:anyDensity="true"/>

Instead of specify all possible combinations inside compatible-screens, that's why errors like this happen (which works when we just want Tablets so it should work too just for handsets but it doesn't...).

Just curious, for what all those restrictions by screen size and density? — Divers, May 29 '15 at 09:40
I just want phones, no tablets and 480 = xxhdpi, 640 = xxxhdpi — GuilhE, May 29 '15 at 09:44

Tryto add this screen support :

<screen
    android:screenDensity="560"
    android:screenSize="normal" />

I guess Nexus 6 it's screenSize="large" and since it's between 480 and 640 should be accepted. Why normal at 560 should work? Thanks! – GuilhE May 29 '15 at 09:46
Your answer is correct, it solves this issue but it's more a hack rather a solution. I've updated my question. – GuilhE May 30 '15 at 14:35
