As announced multiple times (on list[s], twitter, glog.centos.org and
even https://c6eol.centos.org) , CentOs 6 is now EOL and so is being
retired from mirror network.
It's currently being moved to (capped and limited bandwidth)
vault.centos.org and will be removed from mirror.centos.org (and so
external mirrors in the next hours/days).
mirrorlist.centos.org will also (like we do for all
outdated/unmaintained and unsecured releases) start answering "invalid
release"

Kind Regards,
