People say that "to cover the whole of it" mean like "to last or span" such as "WWII covered the whole of 1939 to 1945". ,so I'm looking into all the interpretations about "cover" ,but I can't even find that interpretation among many of them ahah..

I wouldn't say "to cover whole of" for many things, time can be one.
If I had to use it, I would say it would literally cover something, like: "the bugs covered the whole of the continent" or "flowers covered the whole of my yard"...
But I would sooner say "the bugs covered the entire continent/flowers covered my entire yard"
I don't think there's many examples for "cover whole of" because it's not very natural language.
