The problem isn't QtWebEngine, the latest Qt 6.X is using 108 according
to the link above.
The problem seems to be that not everything has moved to the 6.x branch yet.

It’s a mixture. The best possible outcome would be for QtWebEngine to be
part of upstream Chromium and use Chromium’s release schedule. Not sure if
that is possible/practical.
