Help with Wiring
Would this wiring diagram be correct? I have 2 6v batteries wired in series for 12v and bought a truck bed tool box to house them in thinking that one day I may want to go to 4 batteries and this will...

There is no need to run 4 cables between the camper and truck. The inverter and converter can connect at the same place on the camper. You didn't comment on what size cable you plan to use. For that distance 2 gauge would probably be preferable.
Actually there is. The stock terminal strips often used by trailer manufacturers are minimal at best so it's difficult to fit the termination lugs used on heavy gauge cable to all fit properly on these terminal strips. I have this exact situation on my own Coachmen and it's the reason I did run a separate set of 4 gauge cables from my 1000 watt PSW inverter 6' to where the battery is located. Since the OP is intending to power an even smaller 600 watt inverter 2 gauge is way heavier than he needs.
