I mean - how would you read and pronounce a statement like "6 M solution" - "six molar solution"?

Yes, I would definitely call something labeled '6 M' -- six molar. It would be too easy to confuse '6 emm' and '6 en' in casual conversation. Particularly in a lab, with hood fans, other conversations, etc.
