Many individual Apple devices can be used to create only three AppleID accounts. This is hard-coded in Apple’s back-end server infrastructure- and cannot be bypassed by the device. You can create another AppleID account, but not from a device that has already used its allocation.

This measure is intended to prevent account abuse.
