unable to remove all elements from list based on a condition
#2
Removing an item from the list while looping over it changes the index location of the remaining items.
You can loop over a copy of the list and remove items from the original list

values=[6.2,5.9,4.8,6.1,6.1,6.5,5.9,5.8,6.2]
 
for value in values[:]:
    if value<=6.0:
       values.remove(value)
       
print(values)
Output:
[6.2, 6.1, 6.1, 6.5, 6.2]
Also note that you shouldn't use list as the variable name to contain your list as it overwrites the keyword list
