It seams that when importing history from Chrome into Firefox its limited to the last 3 months, it not importing all the history

I tried to change the browser.migrate.chrome.history.limit to 1 million and browser.migrate.chrome.history.maxAgeInDays to 3650 setting in firefox but still i dont get all my chrome browser history

i used google to export chromes history to a json file using there cloud export data services and tried to import this into Firefox but didn't seam to work I'm guessing that's because the json is not in a format Firefox and recognise?

e.g. {

   "Browser History": [
       {
           "favicon_url": "https://www.google.com/favicon.ico",
           "page_transition": "LINK",
           "title": "Google Takeout",
           "url": "https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout?hl=en-GB",
           "client_id": "dMHxim1XWjWSHQvlZzvYEw==",
           "time_usec": 1667503593885490

},

       {
           "favicon_url": "https://www.google.com/favicon.ico",
           "page_transition": "LINK",
           "title": "Google Takeout",
           "url": "https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout?hl=en-GB",
           "client_id": "dMHxim1XWjWSHQvlZzvYEw==",
           "time_usec": 1667503590386853

}, .....
