Try raising the amount of "worker_processes" and "worker_connections" in nginx.conf.

The default values of

worker_processes  1;
worker_connections  1024;

are not sufficient. When running with the above ab-command my nginx gave the same error.

With these (randomly raised and probably too high - try tweaking with little steps) values instead

worker_processes  15;
worker_connections  4096;

it could manage the generated load on a simple HTML-file.

I had this issue and found turn off tcp_syncookies stopped it. To turn it off do

cd /proc/sys/net/ipv4
echo "0" > tcp_syncookies

Now I don't know what other issues this will cause, but it is a place to start.

Is it due to Linux limit when you ran ab. First update ab to last version(2.2.*). Then look "/var/log/kernel.log". Check free memory when run ab. Also check Varnish log.
