Look at

# sysctl kern.maxproc

Okay, 4096 procs... But what was those 4k procs...On my newly booted
i got 127... Well I guess there is now way to find out now.

If it ever happens again, you can drop to the debugger with
Ctrl-Alt-ESC and run "ps" to get a list of running processes.  You
might even be able to recover by killing some offending processes with
"kill 9 <pid>", then continue with "c".

Actually, I got this here today on my 6-STABLE box ... in my case, maxproc is 6164, but mine started with the maxpipekva errors in /var/log/messsages, and then wen to maxproc also:

Jun 22 11:00:01 pluto kernel: fxp0: promiscuous mode enabled
Jun 22 11:00:01 pluto kernel: kern.ipc.maxpipekva exceeded; see tuning(7)

tuning(7) and login.conf(5).
Jun 22 11:30:01 pluto kernel: fxp0: promiscuous mode disabled

I just raised my maxpipekva to 64M .. see if it doesn't lock up yet again ...

Oh, and with all vServers running on this machine, I have, right now:

==============================
kern.ipc.maxpipekva: 67108864 - kern.ipc.pipekva: 39698432
running processes:     1549
