drop it into second and accelerate to 6000rpm for approximately 60 seconds. 

No way would I do this. 60 seconds held at high RPM is a good way to throw a rod through the block and increase valvetrain wear, especially in the 2GR which has short piston skirts and relatively thin rods.

Hahaha.. Whoever "they" are must not like mother in law too much..

Like Trent mentioned, I'd never do that. Give it a spirited run but not hard rev to 6 grand for a whole 60 seconds !! Wow !

but when I was on the road I was getting 6.4L/100km with roof racks and a pod.

Do  you use aircon and music at that time as well???

Yeah of course, I live in Qld, so it's either set to 19 or 22. Yes love my music up loud. AC/DC, Cold Chisel, The Angels, Beathoven can't be played quietly.
