can the garage door be left up about six inches, but locked so that it goes no further?

I would say no. I think it was made for garage doors that pull open (out) so since its anchored to prevent opening. I used it on a roll up storage unit. The handle of the garage sits under the large portion of the lock. It works well very stout no breakins

Could it potentially work by latching on to the bottom rail of the standard american garage door?

These are really designed for up and over type garage doors and serve as a barrier to the up and over motion. The Bulldog Garage Door Lock might be a better option : B008CZ6QNA. Or the Asec Garage Door Lock is very popular too : B004ULMMXI .
