To clarify a little more, this means that if the --host-timeout is 10 minutes and the host took 9 minutes to complete port scanning, NSE only has 1 minute left for that host. But it might have more time left for hosts which finished port scanning more quickly. This isn't just a timeout for each script. Each host has a clock you'll see if you look at how it is done in the other parts of Nmap.
