A modest Pentax like the K-x has a specified shutter life of 100,000 actuations, the K-7 and K-5 are rated 100,000 too. The K-3 is rated for 200,000 shutter releases, and the more 'pro' K-1 has a rated shutter life of 300,000 releases.
I'd say the K-S2 would be somewhere between K-x and K-3.
But those shutter life numbers aren't a guarantee that every shutter will survive to 100,000 (or whatever) actuations. They are just an indicator of average expected lifespan. Some cameras will live to 1 million shutter actuations, some will die at 10,000, but if they camera is rated for 100k actuations, the average lifespan you might expect would be 100k.

With all the recent 24MP Sony APS-C sensors (D7200/K-3/A6300 etc) - they are all very similar performers.
But if you want to nitpick the results, it all depends on where you look at the DxOMark curves for DR, S/N, colour sensitivity, not the simple score number. If your priority is high ISO [sports] or low ISO [landscape], for example, there may be useful 5-10% differences between D7200/A6300/K-3II at different points in the DxOMark result curves.

D7200 sensor performance isn't awe inspiring by any means or measure. Why set the bar so low? :)
