Upgrading to 6.2 first makes sure the configure scripts for the ports can detect all the functions that are available in 6.2. Some of them might not be available in 6.1, so you wouldn't use them with 6.1 binaries on a 6.2 system, even if you could. It might not be a big deal, but in the worst case you just don't gain anything by upgrading FreeBSD first. I don't see any advantage of upgrading Xorg first.
