If I only have a driven 5/8"CU rod with #6 for a 200 amp service as the only grounding means, no water, do I need to drive 2 rods not less than 6' apart? In addition, if I do drive 2, do I have to run separate #6's or do I run one continuous linking both together?

Unless you can show that you have 25 ohms on the one rod the code tell us to drive a second one and walk away. Yes you can go from one rod to tne next.
