How about this ...
You're snookered on the last red, which is sitting next to the yellow which is hanging over a pocket.
In attempting to hit the red you pot the yellow, which is called a foul and a miss. All the balls are returned to their original places.
Repeat until a miss can't be called any more.
Nobody said the pots had to be legal...

Actually I think I like R1Geezer's answer better, but I would qualify it a bit further ...
The last red is hanging over a pocket covered by the yellow. You are snookered on the red and nominate the yellow as a free ball. You hit the yellow and pot the red which is followed in by the yellow (important that the red is potted first!) You then pot the yellow as a colour, then the yellow as the yellow. Three yellows in a row...

My answer was the same as yours, just clarifying that the red had to go in first or it wasn't three yellows in a row ...
First shot: yellow hit (as a red), red goes in, followed by yellow (as a red). Yellow re-spotted. 2 points.
Second shot: yellow goes in again. Yellow re-spotted. 2 points.
Third shot: yellow goes in again. Yellow not re-spotted. 2 points.
6 points total, yellow potted three times in a row ...
