If the ship is due in at 6 is a noon flight safe?  

Very tight not much room for error.  If you get off the ship at 7 am go through immigration and meet a ride at 730am.  Depending on what day of the week AM traffic could be bad 1 1/2 - 2 hrs. depending on what terminal and that is if there are no accidents or heavy traffic.  There earliest you probably would arrive is 9AM which is 3 hrs before.   Personally, I wouldn't do it.  I'd rather get their too early and spend time in the lounge vs. stressing the whole ride there.

I’m a worrier so I guess I should be more conservative.

You trying to catch the AA79 at noon to Dallas?  I would err for the 450 PM one and take the ship tour to Stonehenge or Windsor, or stay on board and enjoy breakfast and depart the ship at 9:00 am.  Depending on the time of year Heathrow can get very busy and stressful even on a good day.
