Ok.. So in this case you are saying that it will put a load of 500*6=3000 users 
on the server?

Will the data collection reflect this total number on the controller jmeter 
machine (in the grpThreads or allThreads columns in the reports)?

In JMeter client-server mode, the JMeter client sends the same test
plan to ALL the servers which all run the same plan.

It does not do any load distribution or balancing.
