6000k refers to the color, not the light output.

If you got just a plug-in bulb then what you have are not HIDs.

The cheapest HIDs I've seen (Chinese made brand X stuff) were like $150 on ebay. You'd have a ballast, a bulb, and a bit of wiring to do if they were HIDs.

I thought I was going to see a real HID retrofit Those ebay "projector" headlights look like theyd put out some weird light patterns. I've been in cars with ebay projector headlights and the light output is worse than stock. I hope the HID lights make up for this. Can you post a picture of the lights turned on close to a wall? That will give us a better idea of what the light pattern is.
