As the hand is played, isn't the river bet exactly ( well not exactly) what we wanted from the check you made on the turn? He thinks his AT or AJ (and even possibly a split pot with AQ) is good and is looking to gain some value. I do not see him calling preflop with A6+. I agree with calling here and looking him up.
This is a good point. I've said it too many times but I felt checking back would squeeze more value out of the hand in this spot based on what I think he would call a c-bet with but fold to a 2barrel, though.
The river bet is interesting because I really wasn't expecting it from this player. Though the sample size is too small to fold as pointed out by Fnord, if I had more history with the villain I would have a clearer idea of where I'm at when facing the river bet, and be possibly be able to narrow his range more at this point and determine how bluffy it may be. However, what he decides to bet with here on the river is to unclear due to lack of history, and given almost 3:1 odds, this looks like a correct call.
