The c++ compiler version is different in both rhel6 and rhel 7
gcc-c++-4.4.7-23.el6.x86_64-rhel6
gcc-c++-4.8.5-36.el7.x86_64-rhel 7

As the error message suggest: you need a compiler with C++11 features for the latest Octave version. That is in your case gcc starting from 4.8.1 [1], which seems to be unavailable by default on rhel 6.  Maybe you have to compile a newer version of gcc yourself if there are no packages available from your distributor.

Best,
