resistance!!
Loss = current^2 X Resistance
The thicker the wires, the less resistance the current will see and allow the voltage difference to be greater to the spark plug. Creating a more agressive spark!!

Keep in mind though for the most part wires give you no hp.

Unless you checked back to back new stock wires vs. whatever "got you 10 hp" on the same dyno under the same conditions with no other changes, it's more likely that you got back 10 horses that were being lost due to worn old wires. That said I have the Ford Racing 9mm wires on my Spring list of things to do to my car, since I bet the stock wires with 120k on mine are robbing at least 10 hp, and for the same price or less than stock I may as well get something to dress up under the hood.
