long lines as long as 20000 characters or more.
besides that, performance decreases too much.

Maybe the popup menu over the line number could have an item that takes you to
the doc for those vars when `??' is displayed: (emacs) `Optional Mode Line'.
IOW, `??' says only "No idea what the line number is". It could help to also
point users to info on how to control/fix this.
And/or a popup item could just increase the limit to make it big enough to show
the number of the last line number for the current buffer.

Thank you very much. It works.
I knew line-number-display-limit but didn't know line-number-display-limit-width.
