Max number of files on disk: 268435437 (2^28-19)
Max number of files in a single folder: 65534 (2^16-1)

Some of it is from what I remember and some of the exact numbers are from google.
Actually according to more google searches there's some weirdness about how big a FAT32 partition could be. I think Windows only lets you do 32GB and making it bigger requires third-party tools. Some say it's up to 2TB, others the 8TB (which is what I remembered).
