Also, how good is Phalanx at detecting and killing something that comes in 6 feet above the water's surface?

Somewhat good. That’s the whole point. It was put in service specifically to counter sea skimming missiles. Its effectiveness is questionable however.
It's definitely designed for that scenario.
