MySQL has a configurable limit to the number of simultaneous connections 
that it can support. See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html
This can be increased provided you have the system resources to handle the 
increased number of connections.

On a finer grain, MySQL will interleave simultaneous queries, subject to 
table locking, as they pause requiring disk access. However, once they are 
performing memory-locked operations, a single query will lock a CPU. On 
multi-CPU machines, it will generally run queries in parallel on the 
separate CPUs.
