In other words the software listening on it didn't process the request  
fast enough and a backlog piled up (e.g apache ListenBacklog or nginx  
"listen X backlog=y" and "sysctl kern.ipx.somaxconn=X" for FreeBSD  
itself). You may need faster hardware, more processes/threads to  
handle the traffic, or configure your software to do less to produce  
the same result (e.g. no real-time DNS resolution in the logging of a  
webserver or increasing the amount of allowed items in the backlog).  
If you can change the software, there's also the possibility to switch  
from blocking sockets to non-blocking sockets (to not have the  
select/accept loop block / run into contention) or kqueue.

Bye,
Alexander.
