Would it have been legal to use deadly force to defend himself? Maybe. If he could articulate that the group of men had a large advantage and were threatening him with grievous injury/death, and the jury/DA believed him, then he would be all right, legally.

The big thing to me is that he appeared not to notice the predatory circling of 4 people around him...or at least he took no visible action to counter it. Either stay inside and use the building to keep the threat away from/in front of you, or EXIT IMMEDIATELY! He could have easily been hit/stabbed/shot from behind and would have never seen it coming. When 4 people surround you, you are in a BAD position. So, AVOID THAT!
