Yes, Jira Service Management (as well as Jira Software) can help you track the overall increase in project estimation if you have added extra hours to the project. It depends on a way how you add hours though. Are you just changing original estimate of the issues?
If yes, there are two capabilities:
I. Native Jira approach:
II. If you are up to Marketplace Solutions, I'd recommend you https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1216997/report-builder-custom-scripted-reports-and-tools?hosting=cloud&tab=overview for which I am Product Owner.

A potential solution, without the need to create new custom fields and automation rules, is to use one of gadgets offered by our Great Gadgets app. More specifically, you could use one of these two gadgets. They do not display '% increase', but display the actual number at the start / end of project, which help you calculate '% increase'.
Release Burndown Burnup Chart gadget - its Scope line indicates the total estimation of the items from your release and its evolution along the time
All you have to do, it to configure this gadget with a filter/JQL that returns the issues from your project.
You can configure it to show only the Scope line. Hovering the mouse cursor over the line will display the actual numbers.
Similar to this, you could use the Cumulative Flow Diagram gadget, which can display the total estimate along the time.
Very helpful could be also the WIP Run Chart gadget that can show the total project estimates along time and the trend.
Hope this helps.
