Folders, lists and documents inherit permissions from the site that contains them, and so on. When a list or library contains more than 100,000 items, you can’t break permissions inheritance on the list itself. Nor can you re-inherit permissions on the list itself.
Reduce the number of items in the foder, library or list that you want to break permission inheritance or reinherit permissions on. You can move some items out first, break or reinherit permissions, and then move them back. Reduce the number of uniquely permitted items in a list or library.

How are permissions inherited from a site collection?
By default, all sites, lists, and libraries in a site collection inherit permissions settings from the site that is directly above them in the site hierarchy. This means a site inherits permissions from the root site of the site collection, and a subsite inherits permissions from its parent site.
How to break role inheritance on a list?
Break role inheritance on the list by using the BreakRoleInheritance method. The example breaks role inheritance but keeps the current set of roles. (Alternatively, you can choose not to copy any role assignments and to add the current user to the Manage permission level.)
A list or library is the parent of its items. In these cases, the child inherits aspects from the parent. In SharePoint, children automatically inherit permission levels. For example, if a user has access to a subsite, they will have access to that subsite’s libraries.
