Can't connect/Find servers in Windows Admin Center 1909
No, sorry - if you take a look at the diagram on this page, it should be easier to visualize.
The port selection in the installer corresponds to the HTTPS port for the WAC UI where the client browser will connect, like a webpage. In the diagram, this is the HTTPS between the client browser and WAC. This is the only "side" that is configurable currently.
Where you have WinRM set up to use HTTPS transport on port 6666 is on the managed nodes on the other "side" of WAC, at the bottom of the diagram.
MicrosoftAt this time, Windows Admin Center only supports the default WinRM ports: 5985(http) & 5986(https)

I'm just installing the WAC 1909 and the default port on the installation screen is "6516". how is that possible?
also when I check the box for HTTPS only connection, the port stays the same.

The port selection in the installer is for the HTTPS endpoint of the WAC interface.
6516 is the default on desktop installations. You'll see when you launch WAC from your start menu, it will open a browser to https://localhost:6516
- So If i set the port for "HTTPS endpoint of the WAC interface" to 6666 instead of 6516, during installation, it should work, right?
