 What URL were you looking at? Was it the Tor Browser manual at https://tb-
 manual.torproject.org/en-US/ ?

 What gk was referring to was likely the Unix man page for the tor daemon
 that Tor Browser runs. It's possible to edit its torrc file to specify an
 `ExitNodes`. See https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en for a
 web rendering of a recent tor man page.

 As far as I know, there is no option (yet) to specify `ExitNodes` through
 the Tor Browser UI. There's already a feature request ticket open at
 #14181, so I'm closing this as a duplicate.
