It has nothing to do with that- that's set elsewhere. You probably ran into a race with Advanced Storage Techniques and/or the planet was actually breathable to the population on it.

construct: to expand on Phoenix's answer - if your race can breathe the atmosphere on a particular tiny world, you can build 5 facilities on it. If your race CANNOT breathe the atmoshphere on that tiny world, you can only build 1 facility on it. For instance, if you're using an oxygen-breathing race, they can build 5 facilities on tiny oxygen-atmosphere planets, but only 1 facility on hydrogen-, carbon dioxide-, methane-, or no-atmosphere planets.
And, as we've mentioned before, that "population per facility" line is not used by the game. The range check error either means the variable can't handle a number larger than 120, or the error was related to something else. If the range check error occurred when you started the game, before playing a turn, then it's probably related to the change you made. If the range check error occurred while processing the AI turns, it's probably something else. There are a number of threads here that discuss range check errors - try reading those to see if your error is discussed there.
