Im pretty sure youre supposed to pull in 4th with an m6. 3rd if an auto. You pull in whatever gear is a 1:1 ratio, which is 4th in a 6 speed.

I'd go 4th, but keep an eye on driveshaft speeds, I did a pull in 3rd with locked converter on a C5, and it went to 172 mph, needless to say after that all pulls were done in 2nd.
