Two 6 volt vs two 12 volt run time
I was just informed that two 6 volt batteries would run the residential refrigerator many times longer than two 12 volt batteries. I wonder if this is just hype?

What is the price tag on one of those batteries? I've never seen them. Are they in a specialty store just located in your area?
Our 115 AH Group 31 AGM 12V true deep cycle RV batteries from Fullriver are, as I understand it, popular in the boating world all over the world. Probably any marine product supplier can get them, or already has them in stock.
They were only slightly less money than the closest equivalent 125 AH Lifeline battery model, but I didn't buy the Fullriver batteries for that reason. I needed 12V deep cycle AGM batteries that could be floated at 13.5-13.8 volts - and the Fullrivers can. Lifeline specifies use of a lower float voltage ... according to their spec sheet and according to a phone conversation that I had with Lifeline.
