Think of the way you drive your car. Unless there's a number painted on the side and you crawl in through the window, not all your driving is done at maximum speed. Wouldn't it be nice if, instead of having to use a big engine to drive slow, you could have a small engine for around town and a big one for the highway?

Cylinder deactivation is a way to kinda do that. When the car is going slow enough that fewer than six cylinders are needed, the car stops supplying fuel and spark to some of them.
