Check that the network you are running this Squid on is IPv6-enabled. It
is all very well having Squid understand the address, but you wont be
going anywhere if the network does not also have support working.

Also, the URL needs to have it in proper IPv6 URL format with []
brackets. eg.
 CONNECT [::1]:443 HTTP/1.0


Just in case, check the 'squid -v' output for --disable-ipv6. But I
expect you would be seeing a parse error if that were the problem.
