So, leave everything as-is, except if the user goes to the root of the
site, they end up at the drupal url?

Add

  location = / {
    return 301 http://example.com/drupal6;
  }

and it should Just Work.

and if the first thing a request to /drupal6 does is redirect you to
/drupal6/, then you should probably use that instead too.
