I'm confused by the explanation about it.

What's the meaning of `number', does it mean that the whole header of request is not allowed exceeds number * size? thanks.

Yes, the whole header can not exceeds number * size.

nginx allocates up to specified number of large blocks per connection. Small header can fit in smaller client_header_buffer_size.
