I fixed my site by renaming all route66 directories in /modules one at a time. Once I got the site back up I deleted the extension. Now I'll wait for a response before here I install it again.

Hi Emmett,
Route 66 requires the "Behaviour - Backward Compatibility" plugin in order to work under Joomla 5. This plugin is part of the Joomla core and is enabled by default. Probably you disabled that plugin and that's why your site broke.
If you face any issues while the "Behaviour - Backward Compatibility" plugin is enabled, please let me know.
Regards
