Only Star Wars had a mono track, and it was actually created some time after the opening day. The initial theatrical engagements of all three films had Dolby Stereo tracks on the 35mm prints and Dolby 6-track "baby boom" mixes on the 70mm prints.
The 6-track is obviously the superior format, and it wouldn't take much to transfer the original elements to a 5.1 mix while remaining true to the opening day (see Blade Runner).
