'plot3' is a function from the file
C:\octave\Octave-4.0.0\share\octave\4.0.0\m\plot\draw\plot3.

-- Function File: plot3 (X, Y, Z)

Produce 3-D plots.
Many different combinations of arguments are possible. The
simplest form is
plot3 (X, Y, Z)
in which the arguments are taken to be the vertices of the points
to be plotted in three dimensions. If all arguments are vectors
of the same length, then a single continuous line is drawn. If
all arguments are matrices, then each column of is treated as a
separate line. No attempt is made to transpose the arguments to
make the number of rows match.
Seeing the above, it is obvious that
plot3(X(1,:)) does not result in a straight line.
I tried to plot only the first line,
>> X=[-0.24537 0.00000 3.02878 -0.24537 -0.74948 3.02878];
>> plot3([X(1,1) X(1,4)], [X(1,2) X(1,5)], [X(1,3) X(1,6)]);
gives a straight line.
Please try
hold on; for idx=1:100; plot3([X(idx,1) X(idx,4)], [X(idx,2) X(idx,5)],
[X(idx,3) X(idx,6)]); endfor; hold off;
The above is not elegant so that other people may give better solutions.
