What you are speaking of is called the "Gap" theory. There are several modifications of what people believed happened.
Ben Franklin believed God was the "Great Clockwinder". In other words he started things out and things evolved from there. He gets the credit because he started the process in the first place.
Some believe that each "day" during creation equaled thousands of years.
Some believe that there is a gap of thousands, millions of year between day 6 and day 7.
Personally I find it hard to believe both. To reconcile one with the other takes more faith than I think I have.
