This is corosync you are talking about. Also there, a quorum is needed to work properly. It needs to be configured in the same way as ceph. You will always need a majority (e.g 4 out of 6, 3 out of 6 wont do).
You main problem can be that you might lose one location and the part which has the majority of servers is down. In my opinion, in your situation a 7th server would get you to 7 active servers, 4 needed, so 3 can be offline (remember to check your crush map so you will have a working ceph cluster on the remaining servers). Depending on which side is getting offline, only one side will be able to operate without the other, but the other side won't.
