Not the problem but unnecessary complex.  `random.randint()` already 
returns an int, no need to call `int()` on it.  The string formatting 
with ``%`` returns strings, so there is no need to call `str()` on the 
values.  Even if the values where not strings:  The '%s' place holder 
implies a call to `str()` while formatting.  If you put something into a 
dictionary with consecutive `int` keys, you might use a list instead.

All this can be written as a simple one liner::

        '-'.join(str(random.randint(0, 60)) for dummy in xrange(6))

The problem is here…

…and here.

There is only one `Tk` instance and mainloop allowed per `Tkinter` 
application.  Otherwise really strange things can happen.  Additional 
windows have to be created as `Toplevel` instances.
