6 mm will probably quite easily crack the studs when you nail a little closer to the end.

Have a nice weekend to you too.
 
Skip the nail, screw the frame instead, when you're alone it's much easier.
Then it's not entirely wrong with a treated sill in the garage, as water from, for example, thawing cars can make its way to the walls. A double sill can also be fine since you can place the panels inside a bit higher up and still have something to attach to.
Smell from treated wood, wasn't that only a concern for wood from the 70s-80s?
 
One can indeed slope a drainage to a floor drain placed directly under the car.
One should also raise the panels from the concrete, there is room for it anyway, without an extra sill.
There are sill protectors with an inward fold that protect the sill from moisture from the inside.
If you don't have such, you can seal the gap with universal sealant.
