So, 1.5 million instead of 64 thousand. Which is a lot, but only 24 times larger, and still not big enough for your absolute worst-case scenario there. The rule of thumb is, if you're using enough arguments enough to even ask "does my OS support it" the only truly safe answer is "no" -- even if it works now it won't scale, and won't be portable. If you have that many already you could always have more, you'll find out your OS' limit in an inconvenient way sooner or later.
I can certainly appreciate needing to make an emergency solution. Four million files!!
