Have you rebooted?

What is the output of
sh -c "ulimit -Sn"
sh -c "ulimit -Hn"

Squid can not go any higher than the output of ulimit -Hn.

This is old information. Current Squid versions will automatically
redefine FD_SETSIZE to the amount allowed by your OS when poll is used,
unless it is known that redefining FD_SETSIZE does not work on the OS
used.
