We will definitely let you know when the KRC2 config tool is updated. We are trying to do something about that at this time.
Upgrading a new firmware version into the KRC2 does not modify the band maps - that allows continued use of the current band maps that may have been modified previously. This also means that the upgrade itself does not add the 6 meter selection. If you want to add that, you will need to perform the band map defaults reset by holding the F4 button while powering up the KRC2. When the revised KRC2 Config Tool is released you will be able to edit the 6 meter selector with that tool. Until, then, the only way to add this selector is through the band map reset.
