That Nevada divorce thing was the entire plot of the movie The Women from 1939! As far as I know, that was the easiest way to get a divorce back then. Maybe one of the only ways. Certainly all the women in the movie seemed to think so. All the women seeking divorce went to a ranch designed just for potential divorcees to live out those 6 weeks.
It's funny it's still a good last resort for us 80 years later.
My ex and I had an amicable divorce. We tried a mediator, and we had no problems with splitting our assets, but my ex was/is so dopey around communication in general, we went on to get separate lawyers.
The whole process took a year once we really focused on doing it. But we'd already separated. He'd moved out and gotten an apartment. I stayed in the house with the kids a while, but then we decided for financial reasons, we needed to sell the house. Only one of our 3 kids was still a minor, but he was 17, so we didn't have to deal with legal custody wrangles.
