Mostly I am going to restate what others have said. The fan draws 38 amps by the tag, so the #6 are technically big enough. You could step up to a 70 amp breaker but I don't think it will fix the problem. What I would do it move that breaker to that there is a breaker space above and below it to allow it to cool. They make plastic breaker blanks so you can safely cover any old unused holes.
I have had a bin do the same, while a bigger breaker fixed it, while I was working on it one very cold morning my hands kept getting cold because when the fan was on there was air being forced into the panel through an old screw hole that didn't have a screw anymore. I considered drilling an 1/8" kyle through the back of the panel and into the bin right behind the breaker. It's amazing how much air was being moved with a small hole this size.
