The Start position is what actually turns on the car's engine systems, like the fuel pump and starter, and starts your car. On is where it springs back to when the car is running. On also doubles as the Accessory position that some other cars have which turns on the electrical systems like lights and radio without the engine running.
Also, when your engine is running, the alternator is running as well and charging your battery to run the electrical systems. When the engine is not running and you are in the On position, you're going solely off of battery power and eventually it'll run out of juice.
