Plainly, both the cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 6D with its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF easier and the Canon 6D will give you greater detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs way more aggressively. The more modern 6D is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
