This is a limitation of tar, maybe even the format used by tar. It looks
like to_oct() in gnu/usr.bin/tar/create.c uses a maximum of 6 digits
(8 - the '\0' and a trailing space (?))
--digs; /* Trailing null slot is left alone */
where[--digs] = ' '; /* Put in the space, though */
/* Produce the digits -- at least one */
do
{
where[--digs] = '0' + (char) (value & 7); /* one octal digit */
value >>= 3;
}
while (digs > 0 && value != 0);
/* Leading spaces, if necessary */
while (digs > 0) where[--digs] = ' ';
