If he has a King, on the flop, I'm still ahead. Why not 3-bet? I gave the turn one more exploratory bet to see what he would do (as it is less likely now that he has a K) and when raised went it to check-call mode.

I think the flop 3-bet is good.
A king does become mathematically less likely on the turn, but it's still more likely than a six (since there are two kings and only one 6 left unaccounted for).
I don't really have a problem with your turn bet, but it makes more sense to me if you're going to fold to a raise. The reason I would probably check-call instead is that I don't like folding boats (and I don't want to pay 3 big bets to see a showdown, either). I'm not claiming check-calling the turn is best, but fortunately for me this particular situation (where folding a boat is sensible but I'm unwilling to do it) doesn't come up very much.
