I was wondering why is that file so big(6 MB) and how do I avoid that?
And second, I was wondering if there is a program that takes scenes from a video and make it a .gif picture(with good quality that is)

Photoshop can convert movies to GIF, though I've only tried it once with a small clip.
 
GIFs are not very good with compression, and they are meant for small animation graphics, like smileys. Your animation is 170 frames long at a very large resolution for GIF files; the file is bound to be bulky. And GIF is a very old format with very limited colours, so you cannot make very good videos with it.
 
Take for example the GIF in my signature. It has but 41 frames @ 72x40px and is still 14KB. Your is not only larger and longer, but also contains a larger range of colours (which I think takes up more space).
 
That being said, I really like the video in your GIF. Where'd you get it from? :)

I don't know about Photoshop CS2, you may need ImageReady with it ... and it's been a long time, I don't quite remember how to use it. :(
