It's probably because "maxusers" is a lowercase-only option in the
config, right along with the ident, machine, and cpu lines. Change it to
lowercase and you should be fine.
Also, from the handbook:
Note: As of FreeBSD 4.5, setting MAXUSERS to 0 in your
kernel configuration file will choose a reasonable default
value based on the amount of RAM present in your system.
In 5.x and beyond, I believe the option is omitted entirely, even in
GENERIC.
Hope that helps.
