The php process will be terminated when the client closes the connection unless you use ignore_user_abort(1);

Also, the process needs to send something to the client to check if he is still connected. A process that has no output may continue to run after the client disconnects.

To execute a command in the background and keep it running after the php process ends, use something like this:

exec($cmd.' > /dev/null &');
