Quite often, it is very difficult to see the gap in sensor measurements merely by going through technical specs. The photograph here may offer you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the GF6 and NX10.

As you can tell, both of these cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The GF6 with its smaller sensor will make getting shallow DOF more challenging and the Panasonic GF6 will provide greater detail having an extra 1 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images much more aggressively. The more recent GF6 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
