Au Contraire please read the Wikipedia description

"Citizens' Band radio (CB) is, in most countries, a system of
short-distance, simplex[1] radio communications between individuals on a
selection of 40 channels within the 27 MHz (11 meter) band. The CB radio
service should not be confused with FRS, GMRS, MURS, or amateur ("ham")
radio. "

Part 95 of the FCC Rules does not state that CB = GMRS
Should I believe Wikipedia, the FCC, or you?

The problem with Wiki is anyone can modify / create it.

sarcasm Give me a minute and I'll go change the Wiki to say that 490
-510 mhz is open game for anyone. /sarcasm

There are several radio services covered under 47 C.F.R Part 95. The
FCC describes three of them as being part of the Citizen Band Radio
Services (CB, FRS and MURS.) The GMRS radio service is not described
by the FCC as being part of Citizen Band Radio Services.
