well they have this time when they're ready or get ready, not much you can do, it's kinda up to them and time and it all happens pretty much on it's own, the hamsters will take care of this and themselves because they're smart animals.
You might, however, separate the two males some kinda way, maybe 2 females / 1 male in one enclosure and the other 2 in the other, so they don't get into fighting over this.
Then, when the time is right, they will know what to do, again not a whole lot you can do, other than keep the cages clean and fresh water and food, you know, just take care of them business as usual and all will be good.

I would not keep all together. Place "couples" in separate cages.You don't want mothers' around each other babies. Once they are old enough, they will take care of it themselves. Make sure they have plenty of fresh food and water. And clean fresh bedding. Also, once the females start having litters, watch out. No matter how friendly they were, they won't be. The males will be the same.
good luck and be ready, mine had between 7-10 per litter normal is 4-6. also when cleaning cage, do not disturb "nest"

i have 10 drawfs right now. All you need to do is to have 1 or 2 hamsters of each gender(1 boy, one girl) AFTer this just leave them alone and in about 5 or more ore less weeks, u might have 1-7 hamsyers. IT simple just don't touch the babies until they are 3 weeks old and have their fur, and their eyes open!! ok?

it'll be almost impossible dwarf hamster males get easily angry with other males so if they notice each other while a female is near they'll attack eachother.
