Typically, its hard to envision the gap in sensor dimensions only by looking through technical specs. The pic here may offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the E-M10 III and ZS60.

As you can tell, each of these cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The E-M10 III featuring a bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field easier and the Panasonic ZS60 will provide you with greater detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures way more aggressively. The more modern E-M10 III will have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
