Well...let's see..you need about 10E32 joules to blow planet apart.
We have nine warheads. If we assume them to be 100 megaton each (thats powerful for a thermonucear charge), and that due to the construction of the bomb the yield increases hundrefold, and than do some maths.
9x100 megaton x 100= 90 000 megaton = 90 gigaton in TNT quivalent
Hiroshima explosion (15 kilotonn) was about 63 terajoules (6,3x10E13 joules)  powerful. NOVA is 6 000 000 times more powerful, so we have 138 000 000 terajoules power, or 1,38x10E20 joules.
Burn a continent - possible, Exterminatus ? NO...
