There are OOTB system properties that limit the amount of data that can be exported. these are designed to protect the instance performance from large exports. These properties can be increased though as you require: 

 

Under System Properties > Import Export you will see CSV, Excel, JSON and PDF export row limits. For Excel you also need to adjust the cell limit. 

 

Be careful with this though as it may affect your instances performance and do it at a quiet time when few users will be using the instance e.g. out of normal working hours. 

 

You may want to consider exporting in chunks to reduce this risk. See:
