But, then again, take my above advice with the caveat that I haven't actually used a 6D before.
I haven't used a 5D MkII, so I can't speak to that. But the 6D will snap focus on your target in very dark conditions and shooting at 16000-25600 ISO still can result in usable images. I don't think you could that with a 5D MkII.

ISO 25600 - I printed this out. Came out beautiful.



ISO 16000



I now have a 5D MkIII at work, so I'll get around to testing its low light capabilities. I can't imagine they'd be any better, except maybe with moving objects.
