I think you can skip it and go straight to 0. You should just be careful for a few runs, because your calves will have to do more work then they used to. And don’t forget to do a proper stretching before run. I personally do a static stretch after 10 minutes of warm up.

I would rotate between the 6 and 0, slowly increasing the ratio of runs with the 0.
I suppose you could try to blend in the 0mm drop shoe slowly, starting from shorter runs, and see how it feels. In any case, the drop measurement is a static measurement and in action the drop "feel" depends on how compliant the midsole is (softer foam means more deviation from "on paper" drop specification)
Perhaps provocative, but what is your goal with going to 0mm? I'm mostly on zero or <6mm drop but I'm mixing amounts of stack height.
