The bond order is directly related to bond strength. Higher the bond order higher will be bond strength.
KO2 is an ionic compound, on separation of ions we get K+ and O2 - ion.
O2-(peroxide ion ) have a bond order of 1.5
In O2[ptF6] when we separate ions we get O2+ and [ptF6]- ions .
The bond order of O2+ ions is 2.5
As O2 + ion has higher bond order then O2- , so we can say that O2 [ptF6] has higer bond strength then KO2.
Hope you find this answer helpful.
