So the solution is the 74HC595 Latching Shift Register. This will allow the use of 3 arduino pins to control 8 output pins.
So I plan to use 3 pins on the arduino to control 3 74HC595 chips which will control 8 HP 1820-0092 nixie driver chips.

How to not need hundreds of pins: 74HC595
So the Arduino Nano doesn't have a lot of digital IO pins. Certainly it wouldn't have enough to drive 6 nixies.
