I would personall deduce older than 6000 years based upon my hypothesis that ' where did the angels come from? '
To me God's ways are 'probation before exultation' therefore to me it is possible / probable that angels existed 'as men and women' here on earth 'before Adam and Eve' and only those 'accounted worthy' having passed the test before Adam & Eve and this New Creation commenced survived as 'worthy heavenly angels'
Did a prior flood occur before Adam & Eve as with Noah, that God decided to 'replensih the earth' again and so created the First Man and Woman of this (our) creational history that we know of via the Bible Genesis onwards?
I am only hypothesising but certainly the heavenly angels had to be 'accounted worthy' and not just manufactured for the job - But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: 36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; (Luke 22:45 - 36) KJV
So also the angels were also ' resurrected from the dead ' to exultation.
