It was really based on used cases we have seen, for example there is a 64 TB limit in vmare vmfs. However if you think this is limiting let us know and we can certainly increase.
Note that the upper limit of the slider is not dependent on current storage, in PetaSAN you can create fully functioning 100 TB iscsi disks without having that much storage. As you start filling them, you will need to add physical disks/osds.
