8 cords plus 2 stoppers allows you to make addtional needle sets or create "flex needles" which are the same as using straight needles because you use one cord and one stopper on each needle. This is easier on your hands than working with traditional straight needles and if you push your work down on the cord it won't fall off the needles the way stiches do on traditional straight needles.
