The value is a radius in leptons, not cells. A cell is 256 leptons across, so the built-in 5000 reaches a little over nineteen cells.

The structure’s LightIntensity and its three tints are strongest at its center and fall off in a straight line to nothing at this radius. A wider radius therefore also lights every cell already inside it more strongly.

The radius has no effect when LightIntensity is 0.
