Weirdly played hand by me, opponent's line is also strange

BN: $252.74 (Hero)
SB: $290.83
BB: $142.05
UTG: $200
HJ: $234.62
CO: $283.39
Preflop ($3.00) (6 Players)
Hero was dealt T K 6 A
UTG folds, HJ raises to $5, CO folds, Hero calls $5, SB calls $4, BB calls $3
Flop ($20.00) Q 5 6 (4 Players)
SB checks, BB checks, HJ checks, Hero checks
i think most people bet here when checked to but QQ is a classic cold calling hand that sb and bb will show up with pretty often. if faced with a c/r pot from either of them i think we would have no choice but to fold our nut draw. our hand will have a lot of deception value if we hit as well.

is this way of thinking too conservative/paranoid?
Turn ($20.00) Q 5 6 J (4 Players)
SB checks, BB bets $19.10, HJ folds, Hero calls $19.10, SB folds
BB bets pot which is pretty confusing considering we hold the Ac and Kc. the best flush he can have here is the T high. i think calling to let him barrel the river is the way to go though.
River ($58.20) Q 5 6 J 6 (2 Players)
BB bets $55.58, Hero folds
the board pairs and we also hold the 6 blocking some full houses. it occured to me that he could have been semibluffing QQ or JJ on the turn hoping to fold out some low flushes with boat outs in case called. eventually i convinced myself that he's not taking this line with a low flush and QQ or JJ was his most likely hand.

am i too high up in my range to lay this down?
Final Pot
BB wins $55.58

as always thoughts on all streets are welcome, thanks.
