Sure it does. A 6000x6000 image is 103 MB if it's RGB, and 137 MB if 
it's CMYK. PPI makes no difference.

2 GB of RAM is OK, if a little tight, for comfortably working on images 
that size. The biggest bottleneck, though, is likely to be hard drive 
speed.

More RAM and a faster hard drive will help.
