This is about multiple speech streams.

More specific from the mere ability to process multiple sensory streams in general.

Sure. Still don't see why the result is at all surprising.

If you couldn't process multiple streams ( I see nothing special about speech - note parsing speech is potentially different from thinking over the top - ie the difference between hearing and listening ) simultaneously it's hard to see how you'd last 5 minutes.
