But are you sure?
I mean, if you'd take the III, wich is a minor-chord, the b3 isn't a note in the Cmajor-scale as well...(hmmm...reading back, I have to correct this one, it is of course a note in the majorscale)
As for the Dm, it could easily be a Dm7b5 ( D F G# C ), wich is often the case in jazzmusic, the b5 isn't a note in the majorscale..
What do you think?

My my, how the tables have turned! Yes, i can enlighten you on this one, but only because you kinda gave me the answer in the first place!
Simple: The II chord (or Dm in the key of CMaj, when adapted to a m6 chord, still contains all notes from the CMajor scale. Not so for the III and VI, or Em and Am - if you were to adapt those chords to m6, you'd be bringing in foreign notes like the C# in Em6 and a F# for Am6)ergo, for all major scales, m6 only works for II. Voila.
