Oddly enough... million. Compare "this is the umpteenth time" to... "i've told you a million times".

Sure, if you’re not counting by whole numbers.

That’s too far of a jump. I’m pretty sure eleventy is somewhere in between. Or is it lower?

I thought it was too far of a jump too, but I couldn't think of anything in the middle.

Eleventy seems more like a modifier - like it still needs a quantity. Eleventy thousand or eleventy million or whatever. That would fit in the middle though.
