no upgrade path

There isn't any direct upgrade path from Drupal6 to Drupal7 components.

You would need to "migrate" your site by exporting its content, building a new Drupal7 site, and then importing the content from the old site.

Under Drupal7 it is paramount to be running the latest Drupal 7.53, in order to avoid security problems that would leave your site upon hackers and destruction.

You can't do that migration with a simple single run script.

You'll need to export your content from your old site, then build a new site framework using Drupal 7 and then import the content from the old site into the newly implemented Drupal 7 based website.

Be sure to make scrupulous backups of everything before you try to implement such changes.
