Scaling is a linear proposition as it turns out, so just divide by 6. Also, unless you plan on several rests, including a couple at low mash temps, you should switch that 6-row to good old 2-row.
 
Quickly doing this without knowing your equipment profile, recipe type or any other variables I get the following. Good luck!

Note that your boiloff is a constant, not a percentage, so your volumes will not just be reduced by 5/6.
