Is there any possibility to make this information

Special:Version?
Unlikely. Where would we stop short of displaying every configuration
setting in there?
I think this one is of practical importance for admins, unline most
settings.
Or alternatively on a Meta page to which
MediaWiki:Blockiptext can link?
Meta is publicly editable.
I could do it, but it needs maintenance from developers. Noone else can
monitor the settings all the time -- whoever changes the settings, should
think of updating it.
Another option would be to pass the range sizes as parameters into the
blockiptext message (much as is already done with the API help message I
referred you to) so the special page itself could display the relevant
values.
Sounds good! I think this is the best option.
