Normally, it is hard to picture the difference between sensor sizes only by looking at technical specs. The picture below may provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the P7000 and S6500.

As you can tell, both cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The P7000 with its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Nikon S6500 will give extra detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop images much more aggressively. The more aged P7000 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
