Why does Amazon S3 bucket mount showing as 1 PB? What does it mean?

I have used Rclone to mount an Amazon s3 bucket on my windows machine but it is showing storage as 1 PB. How is it possible? I am using the free version and it has a capacity of 5 GB. Also, I read somewhere that Amazon provides storage up to 5 TB.

That size means unlimited or unknown:

The size of the mounted file system will be set according to information retrieved from the remote, the same as returned by the rclone about command. Remotes with unlimited storage may report the used size only, then an additional 1 PiB of free space is assumed. If the remote does not support the about feature at all, then 1 PiB is set as both the total and the free size.
