That amp draw they put on motors isn't the peak amp draw. I've recorded my 9L pulling more than 85amps peak, and it's only rated at 68amps. My Feigao 12s has also spiked near 85amps, and it's rated at 54amps.

Probably the reason why you won't see very high peaks with the 6s is because the batteries/controller can't handle it. GP3300s or similar can only push out about 100W/cell, and asking for more than 100amps from 6 cells is something that they can't do. If you did have batteries that could take the amp draw and a controller and vehicle that also could, I'm sure that the 6s would pull more than 110amps during peaks.
