I thought it was set to 500mb? https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/operations%2Fmediawiki-config/40f5cf38a00edce...

Well as the comment says: "// Only affects URL uploads; web uploads are enforced by PHP."
That particular variable limits chunked uploads, and upload by url (which is only enabled for flickr). Direct normal (non-chunked) uploads get limited by the smallest of: MW config variable, upload_max_filesize, and post_max_size and hence are limited to 100mb.
Note: Special:Upload is always non-chunked. Upload Wizard uses chunked based on a preference, and you can use either method if you do things yourself using the API.
