What is the maximum value of 'load' ?

I am very curious with 'load' value.

What is the maximum possible value of 'load', i.e. from 'top' utility ?

And what does it come from, how it is being calculated ?

Document #W3564348 gives a good explanation of the load average, running/runnable processes.
