Does the set timeout web API have no memory limit?

Question

The setTimeout call removes the function from the call stack and adds it to the settimeout API. Otherwise, the recursive function creates a stack overflow. What is actually going on under the hood?

const list = new Array(60000).join('1.1').split('.');

function removeItemsFromList() {
    var item = list.pop();

    if (item) {
      setTimeout(removeItemsFromList, 0);
    }
};

removeItemsFromList();
