We see Sam revealing Jon's true identity to him at the crypts of Winterfell. There he refers to him as
Aegon the Sixth.
However, Aegon VI was the son of Rhaegar and Elia Martell and was born before Jon Snow. So Jon Snow should be Aegon VII Targaryen.
Am I missing something?

Number is not personal property, but property of relationship between person and the realm, i.e. he would get number iff he was crowned, not just by the fact he existed. You may check RL example James VI and I, for Scotland he was sixth, for England and Ireland he was first of his name.

The name became vacant after Clegane decided to paint the wall of the Red Keep with whatever he had with him.
Joke aside, Aegon would be named Aegon VI only if he would have been crowned.
Aegon, son of King Aerys II Targaryen and Queen Rhaella, didn't have any number, such as lot of other Aegons, like Aegon, son of Aenys I, who became the Uncrowned after his uncle usurped the Throne.
As Aegon, son of Rhaegar and Elia, supposedly died during the sack of Kings Landing, the last Aegon that ruled is still Aegon V.
Therefore, would Jon Snow claim the crown as a Targaryen, he would be the sixth Aegon to rule.

It's not like there were only five people named George in the history of England, or even in the history of the Windsors, before him.
