That is not a limitation of ext4, but a limitation of the MSDOS partition table format you are using.
You'll need to switch to GPT partition tables. Use gparted or parted to create a GPT partition table on your disk. This will allow you to create partitions bigger than 2 TB.
fdisk doesn't work with GPT and won't let you have >2TB partitions.
You can, but MBR can't allow disk to be more that 2TB. You have to switch your partition table to GPT
