He says the maximum number of units is 1600.

If 6 players mindcontrol a drone and an scv and build additional armies, the total number of units could way exceed 1600. Or what am I missing?

You'd get the wonderful error »Cannot create more units«. There also was a limit with certain sprites that counted towards that. It was not an uncommon error to see in certain UMS maps that had way too many units running around.

You'd also occasionally hit it in zerg-heavy 8 player melee games due to that larvae and overlord count against the limit without consuming any supply. It was always pretty hilarious to see a small pack of mutalisks kill a carrier doom-fleet which couldn't launch any interceptors due to the unit limit.
