Apparently the max brickcount is 256000 for a reason.
Tom:
It can't actually go any higher because the engine can only send a limited amount of objects to the client. There is that limit because of network limitations. You wouldn't want to wait 20 minutes for a server to ghost, would you?
Here is an extremely old quote from Badspot I found. It was when the brick limit was still 128,000 bricks, but this quote explains why things get messed up when you try to make more bricks.
--- Quote ---The ghostIDs are transmitted using 17bits. 2^17 = 131072 ghosted objects at a time. Due to bugs in the ghosting code, if you have more objects than that, you may have problems like not seeing other people or not being able to respawn. Even if it works perfectly, you won't be able to save everything at once from the client because not all of the server's objects will be represented on your client.

It would be so much better if not everything was through the clients.
