I think the issue is that maybe watchOS 6 will require iOS 13, and iOS 13 may not work with iPhone 6. I will leave it up to you to cross check the System Requirements for each of those operating system releases.

But according to the Apple website for Apple Watch Series 3, it will start shipping with watchOS 6, so it may be a software issue.

But the support page of series 3 states that it is compatible with iPhone 5s or later with iOS 11 or later? Which one is true?

Sorry, the Series is not supported with the iPhone 6. As the support page said, you'll need atleast an iPhone 6s with iOS 13. iPhone 6 does not support iOS 13.

I mean, the page in the updated apple store app states that it you'll need atleast an iPhone 6s with iOS 13. But the support page states otherwise.
