Have you tried adding different numbers? I've only just had a look at the modding docs, and may be way off here, but here goes.

All the item slot value numbers are obviously binary based, and the arm values are 0-255. A lot of that isn't specified though in the docs, but I reckon it'd be possible to play with. Currently, these are the numbers for arms specified in docs:
0 arms = 1 = 10000000
1 arm = 2 = 01000000
2 arms = 6 = 01100000
3 arms = 14 = 01110000


So, I was thinking perhaps:
4 arms = 30 = 01111000
5 arms = 62 = 01111100
6 arms = 126 = 01111110
7 arms = 254 = 01111111


Anyway, I haven't done any modding myself, and this is only a guess as to how it works, it just looks like it should work this way. Thus to get 4 arms, you add 30, instead of the 14 for three, or 6 for two arms. Anyway, you could give it a try, don't blame me it it doesn't work though
