This can be set via the menu "PovRay 3.7 Unofficial" >> "Preferences" >>
"Misc panel".
The default  is set to "Automatic" and then the number of physical cores
is used.
It is also possible to set any value from 1 to 6 and n-1 or n+1.
Automatic is in most cases the best.

But keep in mind that this is an unofficial version just until an
official version will be out!
