What happens if I put a 100W bulb in a 60W socket?

You risk overheating the light fixture and that can in the worst case scenario cause a fire so please don't try that at home! If you want to increase the light coming from the fixture replace the 60W incandescent bulb with an LED or fluorescent bulb instead of a 100W standard bulb.
