It refers to how many windings are on each pole of the armature. Short story, more winds = more torque w/less speed (but probably still plenty for most of us). So the 13 would be more commonly found on bikes using 26"+ rims, where the 12 might be seen more frequently on bikes using something like a 20' rim.

That's the story on paper. How noticeable it would be is beyond my experience/expertise.

I can show you something comparable using a different motor, and a spread sheet that's pretty much accepted as gospel. Free to use by anyone, so feel free to play with it if you like.
MAC motors are higher end, and they come in various windings for different applications. They're spec'd with "t" for the number of windings. These can be compared side by side on the spreadsheet to give you a little better focus on an answer to your question. Here's a heads up compare between their 12t and the 10t (FYI, the MAC's here are rated at 1000w+. The point is the performance differences with the number of windings being the only difference). Tons of info, but check out the difference in the starting torque, and down in the lower right, the range. Check it out:
