I can use a 50 amp breaker and 6 gauge wire to supply it?
Yes. 100 amp is max for panel. the 50 amp breaker goes in the main panel to feed it.

With a sub panel, you are supposed to run 4 conductors. 2 hot, a neutral, and a ground. The ground bar and neutral bar should be separate in the subpanel, with the ground bar connected to the ground wire from the main panel, and the chassis of the subpanel.



Edit: you need to buy the ground bar for that panel, description said it isn't included.
