The relationship is dependent on the engine and drive line.
Vacuum developed tells you how inefficient your engine is.
The idea is a vacuum reading too close to atmospheric pressure on a normal engine means you are wasting fuel.
I think the idea is you put the car in top gear and the vacuum gauge acts like an engine load indicator.
