      Let's say I am targeting a keyword "Blue Widgets Cityname" with an AdWords campaign. My SEO landing page is coming up in position #6 in the organic results for this keyword.

      Because I have my website in the organic search results, does my quality score automatically improve?

      Conversely, my quality score could go up because the organic search results facilitate a higher CTR for both the ads and the organic results. However, I am wondering if there is a quality score algorithmic component that automatically makes my quality score go up simply because the same domain I am targeting is in the organic results.

        I do not believe that there is a connection between organic SERPs ranking and your Adwords quality score.

          The Adwords account has no bearing on organic search.  One of the biggest factors of your quality score in your Adwords campaign is your CTR.  Your reasoning would be correct, if your controlling more real estate on the SERP results your ads and organic listing could be positively impacting your CTR.
