Most people doing this said they used less than 6.
How much fluid came out?

I would not drive the car far on low fluid. The trans can do funny stuff. I think the ZF trans holds 13 liters. Usually only five or so liters comes out when you pull the AT pan. You also have to measure the trans fluid level with a ATF temp. I think ~80'C - then pull the plug and see how much comes out. DO NOT burn yourself and make sure the car is supported safely.
