Saturday evening around 10:00 p.m. I witnessed 6 raccoons coming out of the storm sewer in front of our home. We have two oak trees in our front yard full of acorns which is the attraction. Six is a little scary how should we handle this?

This time of year, that would have been a family of raccoons. In the spring, the young will go off to find their own place. As long as they aren't causing any damage, you don't need to do anything.
