Make means create. If you make a pizza, you now have a pizza. Make nice is something you would say to children (probably brothers) that are fighting with each other.

"make nice" or "make nice nice" is a slang expression which means "be courteous and chat pleasantly about totally non-controversial subjects, especially with someone you don't know well, and often as a sort of social requirement". It is not restricted to use with children.
