Prior to Windows 95 Microsoft itself never releases MS-DOS for any of those non-IBM-compatible Japanese x86 systems. The system vendors buy the rights to the MS-DOS source, tweak it for their own architecture and release their own MS-DOS. For PC-98xx, the official vendor NEC released MS-DOS 2.10, 4 or 5 editions of MS-DOS 3.30, 2 editions of MS-DOS 5.00 and 1 edition of MS-DOS 6.2 (no records found for their 6.0). Epson released their own different MS-DOS 3.30, 4.01, 5.00, 5.00 release 2, 6.0 and 6.2 for their PC-98xx compatible PC-x86 series.
The MS-DOS 6.0 for PC-98xx compatibles does exist, however it's EPSON MS-DOS 6.0.
