Correct, the key3.db is the place where the master encryption is set.

You have to run the mozilla2john binary
./mozilla2john /path/to/key3db
That will output a long line, you can pipe it into a file (
>ff-pass.txt) and then get john to start cracking on that
./john ff-pass.txt
If you know what the password may be like there are lots of rules you
can use to work on a wordlist to try more likely guesses than to just
blindly start from scratch. There are other modes for JtR that might
help too.
