Think of going horizontally A, vertically B, and up/down C. Then this would be just finding how many different orders you could put AABBCC in. Starting with the letter A, there are 6!/(4!2!) ways to put it in. Then putting the letter B, there are 4!/(2!2!) places left to put it in. The letter C can only be placed in the remaining places, so it doesn't add any different possiblities. So, overall, there are (6!/(4!2!))(4!/(2!2!)) or 90 different possible ways to get there.
