The configuration options you have quoted are made extremely obvious in the sample configuration and are explained very well. See:

  # Save the DB on disk:
  #
  #   save <seconds> <changes>
  #
  #   Will save the DB if both the given number of seconds and the given
  #   number of write operations against the DB occurred.
  #
  #   In the example below the behaviour will be to save:
  #   after 900 sec (15 min) if at least 1 key changed
  #   after 300 sec (5 min) if at least 10 keys changed
  #   after 60 sec if at least 10000 keys changed
