Six Vikings players have had their number retired:

10 Fran Tarkenton
53 Mick Tingelhoff
70 Jim Marshall
77 Korey Stringer
80 Cris Carter
88 Alan Page

So, those were easy. Some of the best represented numbers are:

22 Paul Krause, Harrison Smith
26 Antoine Winfield, Robert Smith
28 Adrian Peterson, Ahmad Rashad
81 Carl Eller, Anthony Carter
93 John Randle, Kevin Williams

#6 is an incredibly difficult jersey number to fill. Around the league and with the Vikings. The only team that comes to mind that can do a decent job of filling out #6 is the San Diego Chargers with Rolf Benirschke.
