Sulfur hexafluoride has an octahedron structure.
It has an octahedral shape.
No. A molecule of octahedral shape is always non-polar

Sulfur hexafluoride has an octahedron structure.
7. Selenium hexafluoride is SeF6 , an octahedral molecule similar to SF6
The neutral SF6 molecule has no dipole moment. The gas phase SF6- ion is not that well understood- on the basis that the shape is distorted octahedral a small dipole would be expected.

179 and 103 degrees source and excellent explanation: http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2001-02/983324692.Ch.r.html

This seems like a misprint. IF6 will have one electron too many to attain an octahedral structure with 90 degree bond angles. SF6 is octahedral, for example, and does have 90 degree angles, as does PF6(-1). Perhaps IF6(+1) is the molecule in question, which will have the proper number of electrons.
electron-pair geometry is octahedral with no LPs and the molecule geometry is octahedral
SF6
A molecule with polar bonds can be overall non-polar if the bond dipoles cancel each other out. For example the following all have polar bonds but the bond dipoles cancel each other out (vector addition) to make the molecule non-polar. Linear - CO2 trigonal planar - BF3 tetrahedral molecules, CF4 trigonal bipyramidal PF5 octahedral SF6
