Generally, it is very difficult to see the difference between sensor sizes purely by going over a spec sheet. The pic here will help provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the WB750 and RX100 VI.

Clearly, each of these cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The WB750 using its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Sony RX100 VI will offer you extra detail because of its extra 7 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images far more aggressively. The more aged WB750 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
