I guess you mean that Mozilla will only download 2 files simultaneously
from a particular server, when the server supports keep-alive connections.

If so, then you need to use about:config to change the pref
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server to be a higher number
than 2.

However, you should keep the number as low as possible - if you're
downloading a small number of large files, then more connections may be
faster.  If (as is usually the case with web pages), you're downloading a
large number of small files, then it is faster to use a smaller number of
connections and get several files over each connection.
