Different stitch lengths are used depending on what you're sewing. I would say 2.5 is the "normal", "average" stitch length for basic sewing. If there are certain types of fabric you're using that ravel or come apart easily, you would use a smaller stitch length, which means more stitches per inch. If you want to just baste fabric together without having a permanent seam, you woould use the highest number, to have the least amount of stitches per inch.
