It's "concurrent" connections. Meaning if twelve users each make one
connection request at the same time, then two have to wait until the
others are finished. By default, most browsers will issue no more
than four concurrent connections. Meaning two and a half people can
browse the siyte simultaneously.

Unless you've specified a port, it's port 80. And you forward that in
your router, which is dependent on your router type so check with the
manufacturer.
