Default Brushless motor KV question

Hi,
I'm shopping for brushless motors for a Trex 450 and looking at motors with KV's anywhere from 3100 to 4000. Does that mean the higher KV would need a smaller pinion to get the same head speed as a lower KV with a larger pinion? What does KV actually mean? Thanks
