What does 6-channel DMA mean?

While I was looking at the architecture of the TMS320F2806x MCU (Piccolo), I discovered that one of the functions that it has is a 6-channel DMA. Could you tell us what this means through DMA channels?

DMA allows you to transfer data from one place to another without using a CPU. This is done by the "DMA controller". A multi-channel DMA controller can simultaneously transmit more than one DMA transmission. Piccolo can simultaneously support 6 DMA transfers.
