A few thoughts: I'm 6'3" with a 91pbh, short torsoed. I would have "fit" on a 64c but chose a 62c for a couple of reasons: the top tube was slightly shorter and fit by reach better and I wanted a bit more stand over. If you've done any challenging off-loading, you'll have experienced the need to hop off the pedals and touch down on uneven ground. If the bike is on ground higher than where your feet land, a bit more standover can be more uh..... accommodating? I'm also running 40c tires so that adds to the equation somewhat. On the road or light duty trails it's less of an issue. I think in the end what you'll be comfortable on depends on your riding needs will be.
Given what's been shared on this thread, I'd be inclined to look for a trade for a 62c.
