You are trying to announce pure IPv6 routes within an IPv4 BGP session, which is not what you want, I guess :)
You want 6PE, so you want to exchange labeled IPv6 routes.

On the SE, you must add "send label" under "address-family ipv6 unicast" at the peer-group level.

On the Cisco IOSXR, you must use "address-family ipv6 labeled-unicast" for the neighbor/peergroup, and "address-family ipv6 unicast" with "allocate-label all" under in the BGP router global level.
