Would it mean another 6 a.m within the 24 hours?
I met her at 6 a.m when the Sun rose.
Is this sentence impossible ( or grammatically incorrect ) just because there is no comma before the word when? Without it, would it mean there is another (extra) 6 a.m within the 24 hours?
I think it won't matter with it or without it although its meanings are not the same.
Could you help me clarify it? Thank you always.

That day, sunrise was at 6 a.m. I met her at the time of sunrise, which was 6 am.
Perhaps a better expression is this: I met her at 6 a.m. just as the sun was rising.
