Earth-616 and Earth-1610 are already gone, they were destroyed to make way for the new universe. Apparently there will be a new single main universe (not 616) but it will inhabit characters from Earth-616 and characters from Earth-1610 with some plots and stories from pre-Secret Wars II carrying over into the new post Secret War II universe. This isn't at all a for sure thing but I read somewhere that we may have already seen some of the new post-SWII universe as supposedly that universe may have been the setting of Rage of Ultron which might explain the difficulty of placing RoU into the Earth-616 time-wise so far. Marvel has said a number of times that this new universe isn't going to be a reboot like DC's recent New-52 reboot but just a refresh on the setting and plot points so new readers can effortlessly jump in (which is almost exactly what they said about Marvel-NOW).
