How indicative of maneaverability are the max G numbers of fighter
aircraft?

Also, most new aircraft have reported max of 9Gs. Why are they all
coming out at this same number?

Modern aircraft are capable of higher G turns; however, in order to
stop the pilots from blacking/redding out and/or dying in their
seat, the computer controlling the fly-by-wire / fly-by-light
systems stops the turns going any higher.

I think
