I can't remember the exact limit for VRRP or HSRP (keep in mind
you can only use one of those on a 6500 at a time - no mixing).
However, just use the same group number on all of the SVIs
and you'll be fine. You can also mix group numbers of course.
Most important information is that you can reuse them across SVIs
without any hassle (that I know of).
