We explore the kinematics of 27 z >= 6 quasar host galaxies observed in [C II] 158 µm ([C II]) emission with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array at a resolution of ≃0.''25. We find that nine of the galaxies show disturbed [C II] emission, due to either a close companion galaxy or a recent merger. Ten galaxies have smooth velocity gradients consistent with the emission arising from a gaseous disk. The remaining eight quasar host galaxies show no velocity gradient, suggesting that the gas in these systems is dispersion dominated. All galaxies show high velocity dispersions with a mean of 129 ± 10 km s^–1. To provide an estimate of the dynamical mass within twice the half-light radius of the quasar host galaxy, we model the kinematics of the [C II] emission line using our publicly available kinematic fitting code, qubefit. This results in a mean dynamical mass of 5.0 ± 0.8( ± 3.5) x 10¹⁰ M_☉. Comparison between the dynamical mass and the mass of the supermassive black hole reveals that the sample falls above the locally derived bulge mass-black hole mass relation at 2.4σ significance. This result is robust even if we account for the large systematic uncertainties. Using several different estimators for the molecular mass, we estimate a gas mass fraction of >10%, indicating that gas makes up a large fraction of the baryonic mass of z >= 6 quasar host galaxies. Finally, we speculate that the large variety in [C II] kinematics is an indication that gas accretion onto z >= 6 supermassive black holes is not caused by a single precipitating factor.
