8% seems high to me as well, I don't think I've ever seen my v6 traffic
over 1% honestly :( Why do you think it's mostly P2P traffic? Are there
P2P applications that prefer v6 over v4? or only work on v6? If a host has
v6 capabilities, in my experience, it'll use them atleast as often as v4
when given the chance.

I think the last v6 traffic study I saw still said +90% of the v6 traffic
was still ping/traceroute :(
