NS records MUST refer to A records not CNAMES. Looking up
DNS.M6.NET and NIC.M6.NET resulted in CNAMES being returned.
This is not allowed and is a perfectly good reason for
rejecting a delegation.
On top of that both DNS.M6.NET and NIC.M6.NET resolve to the
*same* IP address. The reason for have multiple namservers
is to provide redunancy.
The fix is to replace the CNAMES with appropriate A records
e.g.
dns.m6.net. IN A 206.166.253.66
nic.m6.net. IN A 206.166.253.69
