How was the Gedo Mazo summoned?


As was explained in chapter 606, pages 13 and 14:

> Those who have both Uchiha and Senju DNA (which allows you to awaken the
> Rinnegan) can summon the Gedo Mazo.  
>  Only four people have been able to do such: The Sage of Six Paths, Uchiha
> Madara (Second Rikudo), Nagato (Third Rikudo) and Uchiha Obito.  
>  All four of them possessed both DNAs and the Rinnegan:  
>  \- **The Sage of Six Paths** is the person from whom both lineages descend,
> possessing both DNAs, as well as the Rinnegan.  
>  \- **Uchiha Madara** possesses Uchiha DNA naturally, and transplanted Senju
> Hashirama's cells into his wounds, awakening the Rinnegan when he was at the
> verge of death.  
>  \- **Nagato** is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, who are related to the
> Senju clan, thus possessing Senju DNA. Madara transplanted his Rinnegan to
> him when he was very young. With this, not only did he gain the Rinnegan,
> but he also had Uchiha DNA implanted into him.  
>  \- **Uchiha Obito** naturally possesses Uchiha DNA, and had Senju DNA
> implanted in him when Madara fused a Zetsu clone with his body to save him.
> However, he did not awaken the Rinnegan, but rather had Nagato's (which was
> actually Madara's) Rinnegan implanted.  
>  
>  According to Madara, he unlocked the seal to summon the Gedo Mazo upon the
> time of his Rinnegan's awakening.
