If your existing hardware supports V6R1 then, by all means, upgrade to
that first. If not, then the new hardware will require that you be at
V5R4M5 (you did see the M5, right?) before going to it by any supported
route.
Our existing hardware did not support V6 (270). And we want to do some
stuff like guested lpar on the new box so we upgraded to V5R4M5 on the
270, restored it on to the new box, and will upgrade it to V6R1 today,
then save it all off and init the new machine so that we can restore this
V6R1 lpar as guested.
