Is there a connection between cross product and determinant?

Is this just a coincidence that cross product can be found from determinant of 3*3 matrix? what is the differences between wedge product and cross product?Thanks.

No.
It is another way of writing the definition.

what is the differences between wedge product and cross product?

Basically the wedge product is a generalization of the cross-product to any vector space.

For one, the wedge product is defined on forms, and the cross-product is defined on vectors.
