I can't speak for most of humanity, but if I saw some guy travelling with what appeared to be a significant other and I needed to verify that it was a ring, I would bring the guy in for a personal chat away from the SO. But since we're talking TSA, all bets are off.
You can take your chances- I know 3 people personally (including myself) that have done it without issue. With the ring being only 6k, I don't think you need to declare anything unless you have more than 4k in cash as well.
Oh- bring any proof of payment with you. That's a given.

10k is the cash / cash equivalent declaration threshold. a ring is a ring, not cash
