In 6-max, if you are going to play this hand... you need to raise with it.

This was my first thought as well, but with the table being so loose passive (lots of cold calling happening), I thought a call was better. Is this too weak (even with the table being so loose passive)?

No, I just gave you the default.
If you had a specific reason (for instance you knew you were likely to see the family pot you did), then this is A-OK PF.
In general terms though in a shorthanded situation (be it 6-max or first in MP2 in full ring) the suited aspect of your hand carries less value.. because you are less likely to see a multi-way pot.
But with your PF read.. I find your reasoning PF hard to criticise.
Post-flop though, I think at some point you need to think about putting pressure on a KX type hand that has 5-outs on you. That field behind you could have anywhere from 5-10 outs between them... you want to cut that down.
