Help me understand something

Click for full size
When it says 7 connected (5409 in swarm) what does that mean?
So if you connect to more in the swarm the better the download would be?

 It means that out of 5409 people that have the torrent completed; you are connected to 7 of them.

Not necessarily.
More seeders usually means better download if your connection can handle it. They can only upload as fast as you can download.

Plus the upload of those seeders is variable, 1 seeder could possibly max out your connection or you could need 20 to max it. All depends.
