"I worked" refers to the past. "I have worked" refers to the past, but the action is likely ongoing or has occurred up to the present moment. I worked in Japan for six years. = I am no longer working in Japan I have worked in Japan for six years. = I am still working in Japan after six years. anyways wait for natives to respond .. happy learning :)

Shafqat pretty much has it. "I worked in Japan for 6 years" only refers to the past, and "I have worked in Japan for 6 years" most likely refers to an ongoing situation. Some native speakers may still say "I have worked in Japan for 6 years" in response to a question like "What sort of experience do you have working overseas?" However, if you say "I have worked in Japan" without the "for 6 years" it will only refer to a past situation.

"I have been worked..." is incorrect and should be "I have been working in Japan for 6 years." This only applies to an ongoing situation.

The use for had or have depends on how recent the past action was. For example, if you use I had dinner, you could be referring to dinner that you ate last night. If you use I have eaten dinner, it refers to a past action taken not long ago. If your friend asks you, "Would you like to eat dinner with me?", you can say "No thanks, I have eaten already". You cannot use "No thanks, I had eaten already". Cheers!
