basking should be 120-130*F while the cooler end of the cage be in the upper 70's and a hotter end in the upper 80's and 90's. Sounds confusing. I try to offer everything from 78 to 130. They'll go where it is comfortable for them.
6x2 is a little small. Shoot for at least 3 feet wide, 2 is too narrow. Depending on the lizards size, a 6 foot long cage may also be too short.
get the Savannah Monitor book by Ravi and Bennett. check out our caresheets, FAQ, and the top of this page linked here. best of luck.
