Hi,

Welcome to our Q&A platform.

In many cases, the M6.bin.exe file is noticed to be a Trojan Coin Miner application. This kind of malicious apps are well known to use system resources like CPU or GPU upto 70 percent or modify the DNS server to 8.8.8.8. I would suggest you could install some third party antivirus software to see if the process can be removed.

Here are 2 articles regarding of M6.Bin.exe, you could have a look:
