Typically, it is very hard to picture the difference in sensor sizing just by checking out specs. The visual here will help give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the X1D and S6200.

All in all, the 2 cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The X1D with its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF easier and the Hasselblad X1D will provide more detail using its extra 35 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more recent X1D should have a benefit in sensor tech.
