Questions

How do I import this into Anki?

Easiest is the .apkg: double-click it and Anki imports the deck, tagged by level, with nothing to configure. If you prefer the TSV, use File > Import, set note type Basic and separator Tab, tick "Allow HTML in fields" so readings appear on their own line, then map the three columns to Front, Back and Tags.

Is HSK 6 the highest level?

It was under the old system. The reformed HSK 3.0 adds a combined 7–9 band above it, which we also publish as a deck.

Can I share or reuse this deck?

Yes. These lists are free to download, use in class, and redistribute. Teachers are welcome to hand them to students directly.
