There is no difference in both color but color: #000000; is more preferable to use for eg you can change with more colors that is #010101; but you can't do this in #000;

With first #000 it can select 8-bit color but with second #000000 it can select 16-bit color

There is no difference at all. As per the CSS Color Module spec:

The three-digit RGB notation (#rgb) is converted into six-digit form (#rrggbb) by replicating digits, not by adding zeros. For example, #fb0 expands to #ffbb00. This ensures that white (#ffffff) can be specified with the short notation (#fff)...

No difference.

Any color like #XXYYZZ can be written as #XYZ

No there is no difference. They describe exactly the same. Only shorter and easier to read.
