I am learning Maven and trying to understand how it works, and I need little help.
When I type in cmd:mvn archetype:generate
I get this weird list, where I can't see number for JavaEE web application.
Anyway, I am following this tutorial, and he gets good template list.

You are getting the full list of archetype available now. The tutorial you are watching is from 2011, so more archetypes have been added since then.
what you can do to have the full list of archetype is redirecting the output to a file:
mvn archetype:generate > myfilte.txt
Currently the list of archetype containing word jee is :
259: remote -> net.thejeearchitectcookbook:jsf-jqmobile-archetype (JSF 2 and JQuery Mobile basic web archetype.)
520: remote -> org.codehaus.mojo.archetypes:appclient-jee5 (-)
525: remote -> org.codehaus.mojo.archetypes:ear-jee5 (-)
530: remote -> org.codehaus.mojo.archetypes:ejb-jee5 (-)
543: remote -> org.codehaus.mojo.archetypes:webapp-jee5 (-)
586: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-basic-archetype (-)
587: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-minimal-archetype (-)
588: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-sandbox-archetype (-)
589: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-sandbox-demo-archetype (-)
590: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-servlet-basic-archetype (-)
591: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-servlet-demo-archetype (-)
592: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-servlet-minimal-archetype (-)
593: remote -> org.fluttercode.knappsack:jee6-servlet-sandbox-archetype (-)
630: remote -> org.imixs.application:imixs-workflow-jee-archetype (Imixs Workflow JEE Archetype provides a JEE Sample Application)
673: remote -> org.jboss.weld.archetypes:weld-jsf-jee (Weld archetype for creating a Java EE 6 application using JSF 2.0, CDI 1.0, EJB 3.1 and JPA 2.0 (persistence unit included))
674: remote -> org.jboss.weld.archetypes:weld-jsf-jee-minimal (Weld archetype for creating a minimal Java EE 6 application using JSF 2.0, CDI 1.0 and EJB 3.1 (persistence unit not included))
Instead of typing a number you can type any search string and it will narrow it down to just the archetypes containing that string. Try typing "javaee" (I get 19 results) or "jee" (15 results) at the prompt. After filtering, hitting just enter (without typing anything) will return you to the full list so you can try another filter.
