Sometimes, its hard to imagine the contrast in sensor dimensions merely by viewing technical specs. The pic underneath might offer you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the M6 and M11.

As you have seen, both the cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The M6 due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field harder and the Leica M11 will result in extra detail having its extra 36MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots way more aggressively. The more aged M6 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
