    It's usually a term used to refer towards an individual or several people (without saying their name or directly involving them in the conversation) when a certain subject comes up that refers to some people more than other people who are in the same situation.

    For example, if you have a friend who is extremely hairy, has a bushy beard, hairy chest and thick hair on his arms, and you say "Everyone has hair on their body" someone else might say "Some more than others", and they are likely gesturing to your hairy friend.

    Or if you've been waiting in a cue for a long time, and a person behind you says "We've been waiting for ages" you might say "Some of us more than others" because you have been waiting in line a lot longer than the people behind you.
