Is 6 aleve (naproxen) in 1 day too much?

No: However, that is the maximum dose of Naproxen you should take in a day.

Yes: This is a large dose, higher than recommended and could cause problems with stomach upset bleeding or kidney damage. If done on a one time basis probably not a problem if done more consistently there is danger of all of the above problems.
