Thank you so much for your help @RudiC , I'll try your tips this night and post here back. I walked a little yesterday with this codem and figured out how to use xargs to "parallelize" the jobs to curl:
But the problem is that I can't rename the file as I want. So what I did is cd to my destination directory path, and then I run the code above. But I notice that if there is some similar filenames in differents URLs the first file is overwrote by the last one. Because of that, if I want to keep the same destination directory, be able to rename the output is mandatory.
Basically I am needing to Download (using curl) in the background some data from(link here), with stderr redirected to /dev/null, to a file named taxcode

diffindex-download
DIFFINDEX-DOWNLOAD(1)DIFFINDEX-DOWNLOAD(1)NAME
diffindex-download - Download utility for Debian Contents files
SYNOPSIS
diffindex-download [ options ] URL filename
DESCRIPTION
diffindex-download is a command line tool for downloading Contents files. It uses APT's diff/Index format patches when available to avoid
downloading the full file. diffindex-download is used by apt-file.
OPTIONS -n number
If more than number patches would be necessary, download the whole file. Specifying 0 to always download the whole file is possible.
-k Don't verify the peer certificate when using https.
-c cacert
If cacert is a directory: Use cacert as CA certificate path. Otherwise use cacert as CA certificate bundle. See the --capath and
--cacert options in the curl(1) man page.
-i Don't exit with errror if the URL does not exist. This is useful as some archives don't provide Contents files.
-q Be quiet (opposite of -v). The default if stdout is not a terminal.
-v Be verbose (opposite of -q). The default if stdout is a terminal.
-d Print additional debug info.
-h Display a short help screen.
