I'm going to hopefully be getting some OB peacocks of someone. I was curious how many I could have in my 55. They would all be coming from another persons 135 African/CA tank with lots of cichlids in it.

The largest would be a 6" male. I was hoping maybe 2 males 3-4 females if tank size permits.

Or is it better to do 1 male 2-3 female?

OB peacocks can get aggressive because of mbuna bred in them. You can put 2 males but they will probably fight if they are similar sizes. You can try 2 males of different sizes but I would put with them at least 4-6 females. 1 male you can do 3-5 females.
