Differences I saw from Apple's site (haven't watched the Keynote yet)
Plus:
$100 more
larger screen with more resolution
optical stabilization
longer battery life
Have I missed anything?

Way bigger. To the point that , for my little paws, the 6 is about the limit.

I'm surprised that only the 6+ has optical stabilization. What if I don't want a huge honkin' phone to shoot good pix with? All other specs are the same between the 6 and 6+ in the camera and video portions, why remove OIS from the 6?

6 display has a little better contrast ratio than the 6+.

I am disappointed that Plus only has the optical stabilizer.

It may well be that the optical stabilizer wouldn't fit in the 6, and only in the 6Plus.
But it's typical Apple to separate levels by adding additional features.
Even if the optical stabilizer gear fit in the 6, I wouldn't expect Apple to make two 'Phones differing only in physical size. So this makes sense, assuming ifixit doesn't find a spot in the 6 for the stabilizer. Well, it would still make sense.
It may be that well see it included in the 7S or base iP7.
