If it goes higher your idle speed is higher.  If it goes lower your idle speed is lower.  When synching carbs you're not looking at the actual reading, you're just setting them so they're all the same.

Oh, he's looking at the vacuum on a carb synch tool.

That's good to know.

As Gordon said, just work on getting them even, then adjust idle. Yer fine.

No.  The vacuum reading only shows how much air is moving through the intake.  The amount of fuel that is mixed in with that air does not effect the reading.
