Older versions of Norton Utilities Wipe Info had this ability to some degree. I've only run it on 7.x though and don't know if it will run on 6.x. Wipe Info or Lido should work for most people especially if you reformat and repartition the drive afterwards.
Be advised though that if someone really wants to recover the data it will always be possible. Multiple secure erasures have been overcome by the FBI. If you really have something on the drive that must not be recovered, ever then the physical destruction of the drive (shredding) is the only foolproof way.

Greetings,
Can anyone direct me to a disk utility/program that will format a hard disk to make the data on it unrecoverable?
Only restriction is that it'll have to run on a Mac Plus and be System 6 compatible.
Any info would be appreciated!
