...I believe it has been noted that there is no further development anticipated for PowerSDR. Additionally, it sounds like the 'dongle' plugs into the 6K rather than into a PC so there are probably significant architectural and hardware differences that would pretty much exclude the legacy radios. Just my two cents worth (and probably worth less than that).

NW Digital Radio and FlexRadio Systems® have been working together since
DCC of last year to provide a solution for AMBE encoding and decoding based
on AMBE-3000™ technology, which led to the creation of the ThumbDV™.
FlexRadio Systems®, the premier manufacturer of amateur radio SDR
transceivers, will soon release an update to their SmartSDR software in
support of the JARL’s D-STAR standard. Owners of FLEX-6000™ Signature
Series transceivers may add AMBE encoding/decoding to their radios by
inserting the ThumbDV™ into one of the available USB ports. Use of the JARL
D-STAR digital voice mode will be enabled through the SmartSDR software.
This functionality will be supported in SmartSDR v1.5.
