Benzene's extra stability cannot be explained by resonance alone, and so we must turn to Molecular Orbital theory for a fuller answer. Benzene has 6 planar sp2 carbons, and therefore each carbon has an unhybridized p orbital. These p orbitals are perfectly aligned for overlap (i.e. bonding, just like for a bond).
