EXIF temperature results are measured at the processor and have no relevance to sensor temperature. Long exposure times will heat the sensor and neither be measured accurately nor controlled. Also the gradient on the temp through the conduction from the base WILL have an effect, there will be a noise gradient across the sensor. Not a cooling solution at all.
The only place I have heard of this working at all is on a high end metal bodied camera and even then it was not able to be accurately managed as the temp was still measured at the processor.

EDIT: All cameras have a tripod mount hole .. even my wee Fujifilm.

EDIT Again: And showing a complex piece of electronic equipment showing the number 6 and not connected to anything visible proves absolutely nothing. How does the user control and measure the unit and camera at the scope ? I don't think I'd want to be powering that piece of gear out in the field.
