It actually does increase your tow capacity, because it lowers your final drive ratio. Tow capacity is rated on many factors, including rear end gear ratio, transmission gear ratio, engine HP and torque, tire size, weight of vehicle, brake power, etc.
However, after stating that, I wouldn't count on that extra tow capacity. Especially if you're new to towing or don't do it constantly.
