Oftentimes, it is hard to visualize the contrast in sensor measurements merely by seeing specs. The graphic below should give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-Pro2 and M11 Monochrome.

All in all, both of these cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-Pro2 due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more difficult and the Leica M11 Monochrome will produce extra detail utilizing its extra 36 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-Pro2 will be behind in sensor innovation.
