There are two options:

• pom.xml:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>6.1.10</version>
                <configuration>                  
                    ...
                    </scanTargetPatterns>
                    <systemProperties>                      
                        <systemProperty>
                            <name>jetty.port</name>
                            <value>8080</value>
                        </systemProperty>                      
                    </systemProperties>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

• command prompt: mvn -Djetty.port=8090 jetty:run

The thing to remember is the command line value will override the value in pom.xml.
