The CentOS 6 kernel can't do online partition resizing so you need to install the cloud-initramfs-growroot and cloud-utils-growroot packages to do the partition resizing in the initrd. I'm the package maintainer of those two in EPEL6, let me know if you run into any issues. After the partition is resized, cloud-init will grow the filesystem to the max possible size. Newer kernels don't require the initrd-hack and cloud-init can to both partition and filesystem resizing post-initrd.
