or to fillup each column first before starting a new row.
int(currentrow / ((recordcount+1)/columns))

example 10 records, 2 columns
1/((10+1)/2)=0 <=== designate the column to display
2/((10+1)/2)=0
3/((10+1)/2)=0
4/((10+1)/2)=0
5/((10+1)/2)=0
6/((10+1)/2)=1
7/((10+1)/2)=1
8/((10+1)/2)=1
9/((10+1)/2)=1
10/((10+1)/2)=1

sample output
<table>
<tr><td><cfset col=0>
<cfoutput query="dirlist">
<cfif col is int(currentrow / ((recordcount+1)/columns))>
filename<br>
<cfelse>
<cfset col = col+1>
</td><td>filename<br>
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
</td></tr>

could be cleaned up lots - done quickly.

use MOD.  something like ...
     <!--- quad column checkboxes --->
     <cfif getSubCats.CurrentRow MOD 4 IS 0>
         </tr>
         <tr>
     </cfif>
