No worries. Use the Net install CD and boot the system. On another system in your LAN, mount the DVD ISO and export it via either http or ftp. I believe NFS/CIFS export is also an option but I am not 100% sure.
On the "install" system that you have booted with the Netinstall Cd, choose ftp/http install and point it to the local ftp/http server you have setup in above step.
Are the multiple CD images of CENTOS 6 available somewhere? Earlier versions had them.
The Netinstall method from a "local" server takes care of this issue.
HTH.
