Not sure you aren't misinterpreting him there - my reading of his claim was that the flow through either water block in his system is higher when the two are plumbed in parallell rather than in series.
This will of course depend on the pump and block P/Q curves, but is presumably possible for some combinations. It would certainly be interesting to play with some numbers to see if it should theoretically work (ignoring the seperate practical problems!).

Note: his SPCR profile states he's Swedish, so there may be some language difficulties here.
