That is what I suspected for.
What is the most safe way to upgrade it, remembering that this is production
server and I have to keep it working properly?
6.2-RC1 -> 6.2 RELEASE -> 7.2 RELEASE -> 8.0 RELEASE, or somehow in this
style?

Is it RELEASE, STABLE or what?
It is what it says it is: 6.2-RC1, meaning Release Candidate 1. That's a
development/test version. If this is a production system it would be a very
good idea to replace it with the current 8.0 RELEASE, which will give you
at least proper patch maintenance.

It should be 6.2-RC1 -> 6.2 -> 6.4 -> 7.2 -> 8.0
Dont' think freebsd-update supports 6.2 (AFAIR it supports from 6.4
onwards), so you probably will have to use csup.
