According to https://dba.stackexchange.com/a/198429/28774 , this setting maxes out at INT_MAX / 1000, but since it's never multiplied by 1000 or any other number, it seems it should perhaps just be INT_MAX
I suspect that the counter to which that value is being compared also wants to be an INT and if one checks for "val > INT_MAX" then val cannot be restricted to an integer (and since we are capturing time we need some unknown buffer).
As for the post question: What can I do if I want to log even longer-running queries on a data warehouse?
The answer is "nothing special, anything running longer than the supplied value will be logged". What you cannot do is choose not to log a subset of queries that take longer INT_MAX/1,000 and less then infinity - once you hit INT_MAX/1,000 you must log it.
