Do the 5 possible FusionTableLayer sum up to 500k possible rows?

I want to show more than 100k data points on a google map using the fusion table API. Now I know that there is the limit of 100k rows from one fusion table. Google Spec

But there is a possibility to add up to 5 fusion table layer as far as I understand.

So having the following limit:

Only the first 100,000 rows of data in a table are mapped or included in query results.

It should be possible to sum up to 500k rows that can be displayed on a map.

Sadly, testing it it doesn't seem to work and the limit is still 100k data points.

But I still want to ask the experts around. Do you know for sure what is the limit of data points with multiple layers?

Thanks!

The limit is set to 100k datapoints since it's a lot for a browser to handle and manipulate without serious client processor load.

If the option is available for you, maybe you can combine multiple points into a single row by using a KML location entry for those points that qualify?

an example is setting the location field to:

<Point>
    <coordinates>-90.86948943473118,48.25450093195546</coordinates>
</Point>
<Point>
    <coordinates>-91.86948943473118,48.25450093195546</coordinates>
</Point>
