It means that the pain from his rib wound overwhelmed the pain from his wrist wound to the point where he didn't feel it.

Watching this, I sometimes think that Connally may not have been hit until around frame 292. In filmed interviews, he talked about turning around to his right after hearing the first shot, then being hit after he started to turn back around to his left. Watch carefully when all of that happens.
At one point he is turned almost 180 degrees, looking back at JFK. Could he do all that turning with a smashed rib and punctured lung, which he supposedly received many frames earlier?
I think he is hit just as he begins to turn back toward Zapruder. And where is his back exposed to at that point? The TSBD? The North Knoll? No, the South Knoll/underpass area.
Then, as he is facing toward Zapruder and beginning to collapse into Nellie's lap, he is in position for a second shot from the the TSBD/Dal Tex area to hit him in the wrist and thigh.
