Very generally speaking, a larger mouthpiece allows more air to be put into the trumpet, which can result in a fuller sound. Also, in a general sense, the shallower the cup ot the mouthpiece, the easier it is to play higher notes.
There is no right or wrong size to play on. The smaller the number the bigger the mouthpiece, the bigger the sound, though some people can get a great sound on a small mouthpiece. To find the right mouthpiece for you, you really just need to try. A LOT. See what SOUNDS best, not feels best. You'll get used to the way it feels.

Each manufacturer does it a bit differently. several factors might be indicated by the "size." Tip opening - the space between the tip of the reed and the mouthpiece - is almost always indicated, usually with a number. The bigger the number the bigger the opening. 5, 6, and 7 are usually the mid-range with lower numbers indicating a more closed mouthpiece (including student pieces). Larger numbers are for big ol' things that play loud and take lots of air and lots of strength. Facing length may be indicated, usually by letters Chamber shape and size may also be indicated by letter, but often that is indicated by a model name Baffle style may also be indicated but that's usually by the model name, too.
There are two kinds of woodwind instruments that have single reeds: the clarinet family, and the saxophone family. For any size clarinet or saxophone, there is a special size of bamboo reed that fits the mouthpiece for that size. The reed is fastened to the mouthpiece by a ring or band called a ligature. Double-reed instruments have reeds made of two pieces of bamboo instead of one, and the reed fits onto the crook or neck instead of onto a mouthpiece.
