Ah! That's probably because it exceeds the maximum value for the radius field in the GUI.

But clearly, 6370000 will exceed the accuracy limit of CloudCompare...

Yes, as long as you don't display the properties the radius won't be 'capped'. I could change the GUI maximum acceptable number of course (but my point was that this is not very reasonable due to the inaccuracy caused by such large coordinates/values, and you may find this issue in other places).
