COMMENTS

More integers can be made if other operators are allowed (i.e., 22 = 6!/(6*6)+ (6+6)/6. The sequence is finite: a(198) = 6*6*6*6*6*6 = 46656 is the last term.
See A258068 ff. for the integers that can be generated with the four basic operators and 7 7's, 8 8's, 9 9's, etc...

EXAMPLE
|
49 is in the sequence: 49 = (6 + 6/6) * (6 + 6/6).

MAPLE

f:= proc(n) f(n):= `if`(n=1, {6}, {seq(seq(seq([x+y, x-y, x*y,
`if`(y=0, [][], x/y)][], y=f(n-j)), x=f(j)), j=1..n-1)})
end:
sort([select(z->z>=0 and is(z, integer), f(6))[]])[];

MATHEMATICA

f[1] = {6}; f[n_] := f[n] = Union @ Flatten @ Table[Table[Table[{x+y, x-y, x*y, If[y == 0, Null, x/y]}, {y, f[n-j]}], {x, f[j]}], {j, 1, n-1}];
