The battery's gone wonky on my tablet. It takes a 3000 mah.
If I was able to get a battery, like maybe, a 6000 mah, would
it charge correctly, or would I need to go back with the same
type battery?

There is plenty of room for a larger size battery, longer, wider,
and even thicker. It would be easy enough to measure, I just
forgot to when I had the case open.
Just guessing - but its probably not unlike a laptop battery, in which
case almost certainly lithium.
Do not mess with lithium cells unless you know what you're doing!
Particularly multiple cells. They require a charge balancing system - if
any one cell gets over charged, it can go exothermic with a fairly
entertaining end of life performance.

That could be interesting.
The battery is flat, appx 5mm thick, 60 mm wide & 80 mm long.
I might open it again soon & get exact measurements. It would be easy to
replace, if I knew where to get a battery.
If its an actual flat cell in a heavy duty PVC pouch - they just flame - the
steel cased cylindrical type have safety vents, but I'm guessing these get
clogged with debris as the electrodes disintegrate. A youtube clip shows
someone deliberately shorting a cylindrical cell - several long boring
minutes of fizzing rather tamely culminated in the cell going off like a
firecracker. There was a small shower of sparks that could easily be a fire
risk, the steel case ruptured so if you're holding it you'd get lacerations,
the caustic burns would be a serious complication to healing.
There's a place in China that will sell me 1000 batteries, but not one by it's self.
