6 feet has nothing to do with it, 160lbs does. im 2 inches shy of six feet.. Diet is key as well as training. The only way you will ever have a squat over say 600lbs is going to be to get your weight up.

i dont know what cressy squated, being tall + skinny sucks for the squat so i am pretty sure his squat would be weak compared to his deadlift.

this is offtopic:
For maximal squat leverages (which is really important if you ever want to be a good powerlifter) the weight you need to put on is quite high. For my height its right around 230-240lbs for an alright lifter, 250-260 for an elite lifter it seems. Seeing as I graduated highschool weighing maybe 165, and now im around 250lbs, its been a long battle. most wont take it, but most wont squat 800lbs+.
