Generally, it can be hard to envision the difference between sensor dimensions purely by checking specifications. The image here will help offer you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the 6000 and ZS70.

Plainly, the two cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Panasonic ZS70 to give you extra detail due to its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots way more aggressively. The more aged 6000 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
