What do these numbers mean at front of my two cameras?

Samsung camera: 3.9 - 58.5mm 1:3.2-5.8

Nikon camera: 4.5 - 81.0mm 1:3.5 - 5.9

Added (1). Does it mean that the samsung camera has wider angle and lets more light in in dark situation (for existing light photography)?

You are correct.

The 3.9-58.5mm/4.5 - 81.0mm is the focal range of the lens and the camera specifications should give you a full frame equivalent (like "35 mm equivalent: 18-270 mm").

The 1:3.2-5.8 is the maximum aperture. At the wide end (3.9mm), the maximum aperture is f/3.2 and at the zoomed in end (58.5mm), the maximum aperture is f/5.8.
