I think that you may be able to make the 6 row work on the R-62 but the 15' flex would never be able to keep the machine full enough to get a good sample. I am not on large hills but I run an 8 row corn head at 5 to almost 6 mph and on dry rolled soybeans nearly 5 mph with a 25' flex. The accelerator rolls make these combines work very well on hills. A full tank will make you slow down going up hill (run out of power) before you start throwing anything over. I would search for a later R-52, but that is just my suggestion.
