What did they mean by this?
People can only care genuinely about 150 people
Everyone else is just a blobbly hypothetical mass

You're adding about 149 too many.
Human beings can generally only care about themselves genuinely. Rest of them are orders of magnitude smaller usually. In terms of spouse/children, the care difference between themselves and their children/spouse are smaller. In certain conditions their spouse/children can overwrite their own care. The next length is handful of close friends/family members. Then your general friends. By this stage the level of genuine care is not significant enough. That doesn't mean someone will say "I don't genuinely care about my 20th friends", but rather even if they say "I care genuinely about my 20th friends", what they say and mean are quite different things. The reason for this is because it sounds nice to people to say it, but not necessarily truly believe what you're saying.

It is because they generally share each others ideals and values.
Why would you want to live among a bunch of Mormons? It is not that you hate them, you just want to watch porn and drink alcohol in peace.

Because you know them and have grown to care about them.
Them being genetically closer explains why kin favoritism was naturally selected for in the species, not why it occurs in specific instances. How favoritism comes to happen is better explained through imprinting, social learning, neurochemistry, etc, better than through speculation on natural history.
