This caught my attention

Was playing a couple days ago........we have a max. payout of $3,500 on the inside.

A guy put $100 on the 2 and $100 on the 1-6 DS.

Granted, I dont see this too often. The dealer was confused and asked floor what to do? Dealer had to take off the DS bet and give it back (before the spin of course). I'm not sure I agree with this and here's why >> Lets say the 2 did hit, give the guy his 35 units and take the losing chip from the DS. Why?

Yep, what I thought (and was hoping) did happen, the 6 hit. Is it fair, now this guy gets nothing. They should keep the black chip on the DS, so he at least has 5 other numbers to maybe get a hit and its in the best interest of the casino. That DS is really only covering 5 numbers instead of 6 (with max bet on #2).

Any thoughts?

It's hard to believe the dealer was confused. 
Maybe the dealer knew something the bettors didn't.

I understand if the 2 did hit, they can not/will not pay 4K but what about the other 5 numbers?

They guy was owed $500 for the DS win.  The bettor could have
contested it and security tapes would prove the dealer made a mistake.

"The guy was owed $500 for the DS win" >>> Even if the black chip was REMOVED prior to the bet?

Only if the dealer confesses he made a mistake
in removing the chip from the DS (since he was confused).
