You can get the ISO from.
ftp://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/%2Fdisks/.55/redhat/redhat-6.2/iso/redhat-6.2-doc.iso

Approx 600Mb

Another option is to grab "mirror" a perl util for mirror'ing an ftp site.
You can get Mirror from 

ftp://thor.cantech.net.au/pub/linux/contrib/mirror-2.9-7.noarch.rpm

And youd use it like:

mirror -g ftp.redhat.com/pub/doc/6.2/i386/

The traling "/" is important.
Of course man mirror is your friend. :)

If you use mirror and get disconnected it _should_ pick up where you left off.

Yours Tony.
