Expected range increase from 6db vs. 3db vhf antenna

What is this 3db,6db,9db etc.
Are the VHF antennas all the same? (excluding heght).
What db stands for??
Pls give me an idea.

Assuming identical setups and a perfectly vertical antenna, what
percentage increase in range would be likely as a result of changing
from a 3db to 6db VHF antenna?
