Often, it is very difficult to envision the gap between sensor sizes merely by reading through a spec sheet. The pic here might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the R6 II and Z6.

As you can see, each of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Nikon Z6 to resolve extra detail with its extra 1MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more modern R6 II is going to have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
