It's not clear whether your index is already sharded or not. But it doesn't matter because: 1> if it's not sharded, there's no shard-splitter (yet). So you can't copy the right parts of your single index to the right shard. 2> if your 3.6 index _is_ sharded already, I pretty much guarantee that it wasn't created with the same hashing algorithm that SolrCloud uses, so just copying the shards to some node on the cloud won't work.
In either case, you'll have to re-indexing everything fresh.
