This issue has persisted since late May (after I updated to iOS 14.6) and rebooting and other attempts to fix it did not correct the problem.
To my great surprise, when I got my iPhone off the charger this morning, the issue was fixed. I did not update iOS, but somehow the issue was fixed. Light mode and Dark mode settings now work as expected. I was planning on initiating a support incident today, but now this is no longer needed.

Hi kschmucker,
Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today with your iPhone being stuck between Light and Dark Mode.
For reference, here is the support page on Dark Mode: Use Dark Mode on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
When did you first notice the issue?
Does it continue after restarting the iPhone?
Let us know further details.
Have a fantastic day!
Thanks MichaelB. Here are the answers to your questions:
I actually wondered if this was a design change in iOS 14.6, but no one else seemed to be talking about it, so I assumed it was not the normal, expected behavior in iOS 14.6
I am happy to change some settings and then post a screenshot of the result, if that might help anyone diagnose the issue.
My iPhone still works, but it just looks strange: halfway to Dark mode.
Looking forward to any other suggestions.
Kurt
