I think the :help is suggesting that you set the 'showbreak' option to
contain the text "> ", WITHOUT the quotes, and are just quoting it to
demonstrate that the value contains a space.

I.e. use:

:set showbreak=>\

or

:let &showbreak="> "

but NOT:

:set showbreak="> "

which won't do what you intend at all.
