If I recall, you can use commands to give enchantments up to 128? At that point, it rolls over and you end up at the bottom of the scale again. The enchanting table can only provide enchants up to level 4 or whatever the max amount is for that particular effect (whichever comes first), I believe, but with an anvil you can combine enchants on both books and tools to get level 5 (at that point it becomes too expensive to repair/enchant further).
As far as I know DuhDerp is correct (huh, apparently I have said that enough that my phone now predicts it), but some don't work or are buggy past a certain level.

The maximum possible enchantment level is 32767, anything higher will overflow into negative numbers.
I agree with Silly511, I have definitely enchanted things above level 128.
