Is it possible to uniquely number faces of a hexagonal grid with consecutive numbers? You have a grid of regular hexagons.
The aim of the game is to have each hex contain the numbers 1-6 on its edges.
Each edge must also be connected to another edge that has a value one higher and one lower than the value of itself, with 6's wrapping to 1's. The other two edges can be any number as long as the first rule isn't broken.
Below, I have completed a small section by hand as an example:

Can this pattern propagate to a hex grid of infinite size and does it repeat?
In this example I started with a hex labeled 1-6 going anti-clockwise from the top however this is not a requirement.

The following is a supplement to the nice answer of @GerryMyerson. It was inspired by the visually pleasing and inspiring representation of  his solution.

When looking at his solution we can analyse
  
  
*
  
*the $8$ hexagons with respect to symmetry
  
*the tesselation with respect to the relationship between hexagons and their neighbours
  

We start with

Hexagons: Some symmetry considerations
Let's assume a hexagon $A$ is labelled as follows
  \begin{align*}
A=
\begin{matrix}
&a&\\
b&&f\\
c&&e\\
&d&\\
\end{matrix}
\end{align*}
  We want to analyse it with respect to certain symmetries. We can reflect it on a centered horizontal axis or on a centered vertical axis. Let's introduce corresponding operators $T_x$ and $T_y$. Applying these operators, we get
  \begin{align*}
T_xA=
\begin{matrix}
&d&\\
c&&e\\
b&&f\\
&a&\\
\end{matrix}\qquad\qquad
T_yA=
\begin{matrix}
&a&\\
f&&b\\
e&&c\\
&d&\\
\end{matrix}\qquad\qquad
T_xT_yA=
\begin{matrix}
&d&\\
e&&c\\
f&&b\\
&a&\\
\end{matrix}
\end{align*}

It's easy to see that other combinations of $T_x$ and $T_y$ provide no more information:

The following is valid:
  \begin{align*}
T_xT_x=Id,\qquad T_yT_y=Id,\qquad T_xT_y=T_yT_x
\end{align*}
  with $Id$ the identity operator $Id(A)=A$

Applying these operators to
\begin{align*}
A=
\begin{matrix}
&1&\\
6&&2\\
5&&3\\
&4&\\
\end{matrix}
\end{align*}
we obtain
\begin{align*}
T_xA=
\begin{matrix}
&4&\\
5&&3\\
6&&2\\
&1&\\
\end{matrix}
=C\qquad\qquad
T_yA=
\begin{matrix}
&1&\\
2&&6\\
3&&5\\
&4&\\
\end{matrix}
=D\qquad\qquad
T_xT_yA=
\begin{matrix}
&4&\\
3&&5\\
2&&6\\
&1&\\
\end{matrix}
=B
\end{align*}
Similarly completing the $8$ hexagons of @GeryMyersons solution we get
\begin{align*}
E=
\begin{matrix}
&4&\\
6&&3\\
2&&5\\
&1&\\
\end{matrix}
\qquad\qquad
T_xT_yE=
\begin{matrix}
&4&\\
2&&5\\
6&&3\\
&1&\\
\end{matrix}
=G\qquad\qquad
\end{align*}
and
\begin{align*}
F=
\begin{matrix}
&1&\\
3&&6\\
5&&2\\
&4&\\
\end{matrix}
\qquad\qquad
T_xT_yF=
\begin{matrix}
&4&\\
2&&5\\
6&&3\\
&1&\\
\end{matrix}
=H\qquad\qquad
\end{align*}

We conclude:
  
  
*
  
*With respect to the reflection operators $T_x$ and $T_y$ there are three basis elements $A,E$ and $F$ and all other elements can be generated by applying $T_x$ resp. $T_y$ to them.
  
*$A$ is the generator of four heaxagons, while $E$ and $F$ are the generators of two hexagons. 
Summary:
  The eight hexagons are:
  \begin{align*}
\begin{array}{llll}
A,\qquad&B=T_xT_yA,\qquad&C=T_xA,\qquad&D=T_yA;\\
\\
E,\qquad&G=T_xT_yE;\qquad&F,\qquad&H=T_xT_yF\\
\end{array}
\end{align*}

We proceed now with:

Tesselation: Analysing the neighbours of a hexagon

Let's start with the tesselation provided by @GerryMyerson and let's put the focus on the hexagon $E$ and its neighbours.
\begin{align*}
\begin{matrix}
A\quad&&C\quad&&A\quad&&C\\
&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&H\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&H\\
\color{blue}{\mathbf{B}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{D}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{B}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{D}}\\
&\mathbf{E}\quad&&G\quad&&\mathbf{E}\quad&&G\\
\color{blue}{\mathbf{A}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{C}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{A}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{C}}\\
&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&H\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&H\\
B\quad&&D\quad&&B\quad&&D\\
&E\quad&&G\quad&&E\quad&&G\\
\end{matrix}
\end{align*}
The central hexagon $E$ and its surrounding hexagons are written in boldface, the surrounding also in color ${\color{blue}{\mathbb{\text{blue}}}}$. Observe, that the hexagons $G$ and $H$ are not neighbours of $E$. We now write the same pattern using the reflection operators $T_x$ and $T_y$ and check if we can see some relationship.
\begin{align*}
\begin{matrix}
A\quad&&T_xA\quad&&A\quad&&T_xA\\
&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&T_xT_yF\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&T_xT_yF\\
\color{blue}{\mathbf{T_xT_yA}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{T_yA}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{T_xT_yA}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{T_yA}}\\
&\mathbf{E}\quad&&T_xT_yE\quad&&\mathbf{E}\quad&&T_xT_yE\\
\color{blue}{\mathbf{A}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{T_xA}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{A}}\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{T_xA}}\\
&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&T_xT_yF\quad&&\color{blue}{\mathbf{F}}\quad&&T_xT_yF\\
T_xT_yA\quad&&T_yA\quad&&T_xT_yA\quad&&T_yA\\
&E\quad&&T_xT_yE\quad&&E\quad&&T_xT_yE\\
\end{matrix}
\end{align*}

So, what do we see?
  
  
*
  
*The central hexagon $E$ is surrounded by all four hexagons $A,T_xA,T_yA$ and $T_xT_yA$ generated by $A$.
  
*$E$ is connected to the other base element $F$ twice
  
*$E$ is not connected to the element $G=T_xT_yE$ and so it's not connected to any element generated by $E$ itself.
  
  
  Further questions which could be of interest:
  
  
*
  
*Putting the other hexagons as center. What is the structure of the surrounding hexagons with respect to the reflection operators?
  
*Do all possible tesselations need three base elements like $A,E$ and $F$ as it is used within this solution?
  
*Is the partitioning of generated elements by the base elements always $(4,2,2)$?
  
*Formulated the other way round: Can we easily generate new solutions by taking one center $\widetilde{A}$ and look for four surrounding neighbours
  $\widetilde{B},T_x\widetilde{B},T_y\widetilde{B}$ and $T_xT_y\widetilde{B}$ and add one other hexagon $\widetilde{C}$?
  
*Is it reasonable to introduce additional operators besides $T_x$ and $T_y$ in order to reduce the number of base hexagons?


Note: OPs tessalation which is according to a comment from @RowanAshwin not expandable ad infinitum has the central hexagon
\begin{align*}
\begin{matrix}
&1&\\
2&&6\\
3&&5\\
&4&\\
\end{matrix}
\end{align*}
The six surrounding hexagons have top/bottom edges labelled with $$(2,6), (3,5), (4,2), (4,3), (5,1) \text{ and }(6,1).$$ Since the operator $T_x$ exchange top with bottom and $T_y$ leaves them unchanged we observe that all six surrounding hexagons and the central one are independent base elements.
Maybe this lack of symmetry is the reason that the tessalation cannot be expanded to the whole plane.
