As @martin_mueller mentioned, older Excel versions have a limit of ~65,000 rows; Excel 2007+ has a row limit of ~1,000,000.

Did you check the other worksheets in the .xls? Anything beyond 65000 is moved to splunk_results_2, splunk_results_3, etc.

I remember there was a limit in Excel to only handle 65535 rows.
