First, I am not an electrician; however, I have always heard that solid wire is less resistant than stranded wire, but stranded wire is easier to bend and unroll. With that in mind I don't see why it wouldn't work for running 220v/100 amps. Is it just one conductor 600' long or a bundle of 2, 3 conductors?
The power company just installed a service line for me on a piece of property and they ran stranded aluminum wire from the transformer to the pedestal. It looks like 3/8" in size so probably 3/0.
Seems like you have a much larger conductor that you need, but it's like hauling a small box in a dump truck
