So they will allow 50 different spids to be connected. You could have thousands of users. They just can't all be connected at the same time.

it means if you have 50 connections open, the next one will be denied.

It depends on how you code your application. If you use connection pooling, then 50 sounds fine to me. We've got thousands of users in our applications and I'd say we've only got around 50 concurrent users on each SQL Server. We do use connection pooling though.
