Firstly, it depends on the country and the writing conventions followed.
The abbreviations that have dots means that more then one word is shortened (for example: the United State is usually abbreviated to U.S.)
However, it is important to note that writing conventions are now moving towards omitting the fullstop altogether. In the UK, the fullstop is not used in abbreviations which include the first and last letters of a single word, such as Mr, Mrs,Dr or St. In the United States, the fullstop is retained, e.g. Mr., Mrs.,Dr. and St.
In Australia, which follows the UK conventions, the states are not abbreviated with fullstops. New South Wales, for example, is abbreviated as NSW, not N.S.W.
Exceptions to the above are abbreviations of Latin words, such as e.g., which is short for exempli gratia, meaning for 'example', or a.m., short for ante meridiem. Such Latin terms currently retain the fullstops, but again, there is an increasing trend towards omitting the fullstop.
