To find out how many Tala Ming would get if she exchanged $6, we need to know the exchange rate, which is given as 6 Tala for $2.

We can start by finding out how many Tala are equivalent to $1.
If 2 dollars are equal to 6 Tala, then 1 dollar is equal to 6 Tala/2 = 3 Tala.

Therefore, Ming would get 6 dollars * 3 Tala/dollar = 18 Tala if she exchanged $6. Answer: \boxed{18}.
