See Edward Lewis' respond (basically, global anycast + local anycast
and you have as many servers as you wish).

The limit typically comes from the registry (eight nameservers in
".fr").

Since they are all part of the same RRset, it is not legal to return
only a part of them. A RRset must be returned completely (or the TC
bit set).
BTW, did you test if typical resolvers (say, BIND) can handle as many
nameservers? I doubt it, they probably have a fixed array to store the
nameservers they try.
