Hey, After alot of research, I have come up with following solution and got success in updating my local project to Angular 6.0.1:

npm install @angular/{animations,common,compiler,compiler-cli,core,forms,http,platform-browser,platform-browser-dynamic,platform-server,router}@‘6.0.1’
ng update rxjs
npm install rxjs@6 rxjs-compat@6 --save
ng update @angular/core
ng update @angular/material
npm install typescript@‘>=2.7.0 <2.8.0’

Please respond and share! Thanks
