I think it's Studebaker but with ZiS/ZiL parts.

Studebakers were quite common in Poland in 1940s-60s. None of these I know from old movies looks fake.
Some of them were in fact 6x4 version:

I think axle hubcaps and wheel shape can answer the question - is it Studebaker with ZiS cab or ZiS with Stud front end? :think:
It's 'ZiSubaker' hybrid for sure.

I think it's ZIS and they put the front engine hood from US6

again notice the fuel tank is Zis, the cab itself is Zis
