This point is covered in Zerwick and Grosvenor, with a reference to two
sections in Zerwick's "Biblical Greek"

Zerwick & Grosvenor say:
"ptc. acc. as though referring to the subject of an infinitive" and cites
s.15 ( which is under the rubric 'lack of concord in apposition' and Mk.
6:9 is specifically mentioned in n.15) and s.394 which deals with the
change of case after an infinitive "where the subject of the infinitive is
identical with an element of the main clause which is in the genitive or
the dative etc etc " --- and of course the dative in 6:8 is the AUTOIS who
have been commanded.

New Testament. Rome, 1988.

Hope this helps,
