Ha, for sure.
I totally do recommend getting pedals and shoes, but it's more of a bike handling and confidence thing than raw power. Again, what I said before. It can be done pretty damn affordably, FWIW! These and these would be a pretty damn solid starting point. No need to go full Sidi and Speedplay Nanos off the bat.
For pedals just get these. They're well-built, light, and work just as well as the more expensive variants (plus that bike is all 105 components so you might as well have the pedals be 105 as well). You'll need a pedal wrench obviously. You'll also need SPD-SL compatible shoes. Get these on amazon to save money. These are a pretty good starter shoe.
Yeah, if you're 6' a 57 should fit. I'd inspect it to make sure shifting, brakes, etc. are in working order and once you have the bike go to a place that does bike fitting (here is a good place to find locations). It'll run you around $100 but they'll be able to adjust heights, swap out the stem for a proper length, etc. Totally worth it to prevent injury (plus your bike will feel much better).
