The ST65 was manufactured 4 years prior to the A6000 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras feature different body design with the Samsung ST65 being a Ultracompact camera and the Sony A6000 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go right into a thorough comparison, here is a simple summation of how the ST65 matches up against the A6000 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Oftentimes, it is difficult to envision the difference between sensor measurements merely by reading a spec sheet. The graphic underneath will help provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the ST65 and A6000.

Clearly, each of these cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The ST65 because of its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow DOF harder and the Sony A6000 will offer you extra detail due to its extra 10MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The older ST65 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
