How long should a CO2 tank last?

Tough to estimate. Guessing you are just using the co2 to serve the beer and not carbonated it.
The tare or empty weight of the tank is stamped on the side, so you can weigh it and know how much gas you have left.
At 30 kegs I would guess your close to empty.
Lots of folks like to have a spare tank, that way they can refill on their schedule rather than the tanks

Per Micromatic a 5 lb tank is good for 14-22 5 gallon kegs. You need to fill
This is interesting, having dispensed approx 30 1/6 kegs, I would guess co2 is actually coming out of solution and aiding in pushing the beer.
Is your beer a little flatter on the last pour as opposed to the first?
Wow 30 kegs, that's a miracle

That is based on 10-14 psi, your 6-8 explains the number you got but tomorrow you need to get it filled.
