	else
		local mapNumber = math.random(3)

It doesn't work because you're rewriting a variable the wrong way.

local mapNumber = math.random(3)
if game.Workspace.NextMap.Value >= 1 then
	mapNumber = game.Workspace.NextMap.Value
	game.Workspace.NextMap.Value = 0    
else
	mapNumber = math.random(3)
end

You should set mapnumber outside of the if statement. Also, when rewriting variables, you don't place local before the variable name.
