Indeed, it wouldn't make any sense.  Fortunately, that's not what it
means.  What it means is that if you want to run N jobs in parallel, you
need every involved resource (Director, Client, and Storage) to have
Maximum Concurrent Jobs set to at least N.  Preferably at least N+1, to
allow console sessions to communicate with the daemons while the jobs
are running.

I believe you are mis-parsing the sentence.  Read it as "... only if you
have set Maximum Concurrent Jobs greater than [NUMERAL 1] in the..."
