^^^This.

You mention you have an iPhone 6, but you don't say what capacity. I'm betting that you have a 16GB model and that you don't have much space left because of apps, music and photos.

You have to have enough space to download an update and enough space to install it. OTA (Over the Air) updates are larger than updates through iTunes. If you don't have enough space, things like your situation can happen.

Unfortunately, if you don't have a recent backup to restore from, a DFU upgrade/restore is going to wipe the phone.
