 is it wrong to place this value there?

According to /usr/src/UPDATING, you can set it from the loader.
Put it in loader.conf(5).

Well this helps a bit ...:)

But the problem I had was that when I added it to sysctl.conf
I added the 'word' sysctl infront of the commandnot just the command 
itself...

Stupid mistake. After fixing that...SMP is working nicely on this machine.

thanks :)
