How many pounds is 6 tons?

Close, John. The UK (or "long") ton is actually 2240 pounds and I think the only countries still using it are former British colonies.
A pound avoirdupois is 16 ounces. A hundred-weight is actually 112 pounds and 20 hundred-weights make up the "long ton".
Interestingly the metric "tonne" is within a couple of pounds of the British ton.
