In the first round you would actually have seven attacks as the gloom stalker ambush procs off of taking the attack action in the first round and action surge lets you take an action twice.
So it would go as
Action attack - two attacks from the extra attack ranger has at 5, one attack from dread ambush.
Bonus action attack - one attack per two weapon rules.
You can get with that combination 7 attacks. 1 action (2 attacks with Extra Attack) +1 Dread Ambusher (only 1 attack) + 1 Action Surge (2 attacks with Extra Attack) +1 Dread Ambusher + 1 bonus action (1 attack with Two-weapon fighting).
If you have Haste, I believe it gets to 9 attacks, because, as a matter of fact, you do get one more Action (only one attack), but because of Dread Ambusher is a +2 attacks.

Dread Ambusher's attack is part of the Attack action. Haste's Attack action is limited to one attack; Dread Ambusher won't work with it any more than Extra Attack would.
But Haste's Attack action (1 attack only) is, indeed, an Attack action. If Dread Ambusher's additional attack works with Action Surge, shouldn't it work of Haste's attack action as well?
EDIT: YEah, no, Dread Ambusher won't work with Haste, since the additional attack is part of the Attack action.

General: The Attack action lets you make 1 melee or ranged attack.
More specific: You can make additional attacks when you take the Attack action (Extra Attack, Thirsting Blade, Dread Ambusher).
Most specific: Regardless of the number of attacks you normally make, you can only make 1 attack with this particular Attack action (Haste).
We know that's the intent behind "one weapon attack only" and there's no other sensible interpretation since the general rules already limit your Attack action to 1 attack. You're interpreting Haste the same way since you didn't apply Extra Attack in your example. If Extra Attack doesn't apply, why would Dread Ambusher?
On that note, you could squeeze out 1 more attack with 2 monk levels using Flurry of Blows. But with this many attacks, you'd be better off using your bonus action on Hunter's Mark unless you're fighting a lot of low HP enemies.

If you have Haste,
I believe it gets to 9 attacks, because, as a matter of fact, you do get one more Action (only one attack), but because of Dread Ambusher isa +2attacks.you get one more attack.
But Haste's Attack action (1 attack only) is, indeed, an Attack action. If Dread Ambusher's additional attack works with Action Surge, shouldn't it work of Haste's attack action as well?EDIT: YEah, no, Dread Ambusher won't work with Haste, since the additional attack is part of the Attack action.
Take Fighter to lvl 11 to get three regular attacks, 1 Dread Ambush, action surge to get 4 more and then the bonus attack to hit 9 total attacks.
