No, but I recently purchased 2 x 515's and they arrived with 6.1. I migrated the customer from Checkpoint to these two PIX's. In Checkpoint (a much easier product to configure IMHO) I had about 13 rules in the ruleset, utilising lots of groups. 6.1 doesn't support groups, so I was faced with having to create hundreds of rules.
I called the reseller, and they emailed me 6.22 and PDM 2.02 on the same day! The also said that next time, specify the desired OS and they will pre-install. This is in London, where, hmm, customer service is not a priority...!!! So you should be able to get it done where you are.

My main concern is that I want the OS to support PPP over ethernet which I believe is only avaible on newer versions.
