 Hi @ungowp,

 Welcome to Trac! I'm sorry that it took so long to receive a response.

 When an image is uploaded to WordPress, there are a number of image sizes
 generated. The total number depends on how many sub sizes are registered
 by any active plugins and your theme. By default, WordPress will create a
 smaller image from the original when one side is greater than 2560 pixels
 before using that version to create any further images. The only thing
 that the `big_image_size_threshold` filter you mentioned controls is
 disabling this behavior to ensure all images are generated from the true,
 full size original.

 The reason why a smaller size is being indexed for your images is really
 hard to say without being able to look at the site, and could be due a
 large number of variables. Given the information available right now, it
 does not seem like this is a bug in WordPress Core, so I'm going to close
 this out.

 If you're able to pinpoint steps to reproduce this in a fresh install of
 WordPress, please reopen the ticket with more detail.
