The maximum size of a document in MongoDB 1.8 and above is 16Mb.

Previously it was 4Mb. GridFS enables one to seamlessly spread a single file across many documents. If you inspect the actual documents in MongoDB you will notice many separate documents, but through GridFS they will seamlessly appear as a single file.

Does that answer the question?

You need to use GridFS for this as normally MongoDB documents are limited to 16MB. See the overview and examples in the PHP documentation at http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.mongogridfs.php
