I'm at 5,601 characters with spaces. I know the approximate length should around 4500. What would you consider THE MAX a personal statement should be character wise. Do they really limit your character count?

Yes. Your limit is 4500 characters including spaces. You physically can't enter anymore characters over 4500.
