Do some special physics happen at 246 GeV? I just wonder, which is the physical significance of the Higgs field (not the boson!) having a vacuum expected value of 246 GeV?

Do mass as we know it disappears beyon this energy? Do some strange particle appears?

I think your question is good enough to no one knows (yet) the answer
