There can be 14 in a bakers dozen, tracing its origins back to England since the reign of Henry II, a bakers dozen was just a way to ensure compliance with weight regulation to avoid fine or punishment by adding an extra roll, bun, etc or two. In more modern times, if you order certain items from a bakery, specifically doughnuts, a bakers dozen is 14 as to accommodate the box size (13 would be a weird fit)

Never heard of "bakers score" and "bakers gross", a bakers dozen is 13 because bakers used to throw in an extra bun for example if you ordered 12 buns, a baker would throw in one more making it thirteen, a score is 20 and a gross is 144, so if you go with the "bakers dozen" rule I suppose you add one to a score and one to a gross.
13 is a Bakers Dozen.
