Never seen a 6V booster pack.The fact that halving the voltage,means doubling the amperage to get the same power level as a 12V pack,it wouldnt be very practical.
Ex:a 1200 peak amp booster pack in 12v would need 2400 amps peak in a 6V version.That would weigh a bunch to carry around easily.Not to mention the wire gauge of the cables/clamps would need to be huge.
Also,the last carline offered in the US with 6V was the 1966 VWs.....(however there were lots of import cycles offered in the 70s with 6V,plus mopeds and scooters...not many of those needing jump starts).
