Have you rebooted the server in question? If so thats why

The "max global users" count in /LUSERS is never saved to disk; it's only stored in memory. Therefore, if you restart your server, that count is reset. However, if you're a part of a network, your "global users" value will be restored when you relink, since this value is synchronised between servers on linking. (Unless all the servers on the network go down at the same time, that is.) If you're a single-server network, I'm afraid there's not much that you can do.

(By the way, the "max local users" count is saved to disk and hence restored when recoving from a restart or shutdown.)
