I'm trying to install Gekko and I get the following error:

I'm on Windows 10 with Node version 6.9.4 and NPM version 3.10.10.

Please help - what can I do to resolve this and finish installing Gekko? I've also posted this question as an issue on the Github repo, but I don't have much hope of a reply from there.

Any help to make this example more minimal (as in minimum verifiable example) or about any extra information required would be much appreciated; I don't know enough about this to ask an easily-answerable question.

installing sqlite 4.0.1 instead of 3.1.13 fixed it for me

Your linked GitHub issue was resolved with the solution of updating to sqlite3@^4.0.1. However, the commenters on your issue are using later versions of Node v9 or later Node v10 so this sqlite3 version upgrade may not fix your issue. Gekko updated to sqlite3 v4.0.2 in Gekko v0.6.3 so upgrade to that version or above, reinstall and then you'll be using the latest version of sqlite3 at the time of writing which contains the resolution for your issue.

All that said, looking at your error message, it appears that you don't have python available on your PATH:

Error: Can't find Python executable "python", you can set the PYTHON env variable.

So try both approaches - upgrade Gekko and ensure Python is installed and available within your environment.
