I am running #6 copper. As I read it, it is good for 55a, and since
there is no 55a breaker, I can use a 60a. Is that correct?

No. Use a 50A breaker (or less).


I should clarify my comments here. The ampacity of the #6 wire depends upon
the type of wire. OP didn't say what type. If it is a type that has a 55 A
ampacity, then use 50 A breaker. Other types of #6, may have ampacities of
65, 75, or other.
