Yes. It probably means very excellent.

Oh, thank you! I thought it means 'she became a great-great-great ... grandma', which means she became a far relative of the Savior. And the hyphen between 'very' and 'great' is to specify that it is very-great(meaning excellent grandma), not 'very great-grandma'? I am still a bit confused. Please help me. 도와주세요:(

That is why I answered with the word probably. I did not know if you are familiar with far relatives and i dont know where the sentence is used.
When refering to relatives we use great-great-great. I have never heard a far relative refered to as very-great or "super great". But I would say "my grandmother was a very-great person." Hyphens are tricky. You are correct about excellent grandma.
