With RHEL 6.1 there is a package called "icedtea-web"
This not only have javaws, but it has "IcedTeaPlugin", which I am assuming

So, right now, no there isn't a java plugin in SL6. But it should be in

One might also recompile and thest the SRPM.
The EL6.1 SRPM builds and installs on SL6, but hangs Firefox on an
attempt to verify the plugin.

The Oracle jre plugin from their self-extracting RPM works.

For i386:
# sh ./jre-6u25-linux-i586-rpm.bin
# cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
# ln -s /usr/java/jre1.6.0_25/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
# alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jre1.6.0_25/bin/java 2
