I dont't think, Mapserver has the out-of-the-box possibility to render the 
overlapping parts of polygons in a special way. Perhaps you could try to create 
a separate layer (f. e. in Postgis with a special geo-query), that just shows 
these overlapping parts. But also then I think its difficult to query and to 
render the case, that three or more polygons do overlap.
