That value is not hard set upstream AFAIK. What version of Tracker are 
you using ?

Depending on the version of Tracker, you can either change your .cfg 
file or GSettings. But there is an FTS config:

$HOME/.config/tracker/tracker-fts.cfg:

  MaxWordsToIndex=10000

$HOME/.config/tracker/tracker-extract.cfg:

  MaxBytes=1048576

It may vary if distros patch this config.
