The first three are in the VCL, take a look in the help and the sources. Delphi 6 has no generics, so cannot be used with a template library. And no garbage collection.
If you want to program in Delphi, forget about them. If not, find another language.

As an alternative to DeCAL (Which is a very good alternative to TList without generics), I will propose EZSDL by Julian M Bucknall.

There is DeCAL, which claims to be similar to the STL. I've never really tested it, however.

There are many third party delphi libraries, components and source code examples on the net. Just a couple off the top of my head
JEDI http://www.delphi-jedi.org/
and
a Delphi super page http://delphi.icm.edu.pl/

Try Jedi Code Library. There are good replacements for container classes and sorting algorithms. I don't think there is GC or STL-like library for Delphi 6.
Delphi 6 is behind the times, check Delphi 2009 or at least Turbo Delphi
