NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.
When a page is added to the favorites by an user, Confluence internally assign a label to the page.
In Confluence, there is a limit of 500 labels per item. This is hard-coded as a constant in the class com.atlassian.confluence.util.LabelUtil:
/** * The maximum number of labels allowed on a page or space. */ public static final int MAX_ALLOWED_LABELS = 500;
This limit is insufficient for instances with thousands of users. There should be no limit on how many users can favorite a page.

This issue is fixed in Confluence 5.9 and fix is not back-ported to older versions, that's why it is reproducible in 5.6.1. Version 6 also contains the fix, so you shouldn't have this issue after upgrading Confluence.
