For a finite group action, Burnside's lemma givesPair each vertex with its opposite face. This correspondence is equivariant under every tetrahedral symmetry. Each pair has six possible combined color states: three face colors and two vertex colors. Thus we are coloring four positions with six symbols; the two kinds of coloring must be counted together.

The group of rotations is the alternating group $A_4$. The identity has four cycles and fixes $6^4$ colorings. Its three half-turns have cycle type $(2,2)$ and each fix $6^2$. Its eight third-turns have cycle type $(3,1)$ and each also fix $6^2$. Consequently the rotation count isAllowing mirror equivalence gives the full tetrahedral symmetry group $S_4$. Now all permutations of the four paired positions are allowed, so a coloring is determined by a multiset of four symbols chosen from six. stars and bars givesFor an independent Burnside check, the five cycle types of $S_4$ give numerator $6^4+6\cdot 6^3+3\cdot 6^2+8\cdot 6^2+6\cdot 6=3024$, whose quotient by 24 is 126. This is paired face and vertex colorings of a tetrahedron.
