If you go to a local shop, they might have a few batteries lying around that are around the same age of the ones that show good. See if you can get those for a little of nothing to put with the good ones.

...although 6.0 is not a good reading for a good 6v battery fully charged.

I thought you meant after charging. Someone else will have to answer the "load" question.

The rest are fine under load. As SpoiledRotten said I would see if you can find another used battery of the same brand and age and you should be fine.

Charge all the batteries up and then let it sit overnight, take a reading of the individual battery voltages and post the results.
I trust your cables are in good condition and are clean and tight.
