The gear at the top right only lets me hide the new tab page, not adjust the settings, like it shows on the help page.

If you want to set a fixed number of tiles, I believe you can do so with the following extension:

Just by uploading the extension, when I went to the tab page the nine tiles were already back! I'll play around with the other features. Thank you, Cory. I had played around with the page after I posted my question and I found that I could make the 9 reappear by zooming out, but when I went back to the page it was reset to the original size and only six were showing again.

Make sure to close all tabs with the about:newtab pages and possibly close and restart Firefox to avoid Firefox from using a cached version of the about:newtab page before zooming the page.
