What are the proven/tested version of Perl for CentOS 6 and 7? Is Perl 6 operational on either?
C6 comes with perl 5.10.1 C7 comes with perl 5.16.3
Additionally, there are software collections available for Perl 5.16 and 5.20:

I can't speak for Perl 6, but a cursory search suggests that neither CentOS 6 nor 7 have readily available packages.
But packages aside, as Linux is UNIX-like system, you can always install it UNIX way: download tarball from perl site, compile and install it. You will have to do your own work maintaining it whenever updates are necessary.
