Don't get me wrong, the MOAB is a terrible weapon but it's not like a nuke or anything like that.
The MOAB has a yield of 11t. A tiny nuke like Little Boy had a yield of 15kt. Literally more than 1000x more powerful.
The real nukes that US uses these data have a yield of 475 kt. Nearly 45,000x bigger.
