The words "Maximum Seat Configuration" are notable in that they don't appear elsewhere in the dictionary. They are different to MCPSC, MOPSC and MPSC which are about certification and OM approved seat numbers of the aircraft.
I interpret "configuration" to be the number fitted that day. You'd need to pull one out to be legal. Much safer that way.
