Use STRQM to create Query Manager queries instead.
 
But if you must use WRKQRY for some strange reason (and I’d like to know what it is), you can usually only make that type of change for a summary field by creating Result Fields with larger sizes. In your case, though, I’m not at all sure what can increase a ‘Count’ field. Counting more than ten million of anything seems a little extreme for WRKQRY. There might not be any good way of doing it.
 
You could just create a SQL VIEW that does a COUNT() and use WRKQRY to report it, I suppose. That would give you ‘Count’ values as big as you might imagine.
