Under the Gladius (and similar tank entries) it says "Must include 6 vehicles" or something of the sort.
Does this mean that I can't just have one Condor with 2 Gladius'? I have to have 3 Condors with 2 in each, or none at all?
Or am I misinterpreting?

Dropships must be fully loaded. You either completely fill a large drop ship, break the squad into maxed out smaller drop ships, or leave the dropships at home.
The reasoning given in the book is that no force would waste an expensive dropship without it being fully loaded. Ruiewise it prevents folks from loading up on large drop ships by taking minimum sized squads.

But I'd be able to just take a single Condor with 2 Gladius', right? I don't have to take A full squad of 6 and corresponding dropships?

Afaik you can just have 2 in a Condor. This is pretty much true across the board- any tank for any faction can be taken just to fill a medium dropship, you're never forced to take enough to fill a heavy dropship.
You can even just drive them on the board  which is what my fast Shaltari tanks are doing! Saving the gates for my warstriders

No every transport that is taken must be filled and must start the game with every unit they are taken for inside.
