255 is the maximum number that can fit into a single byte. Odds are that when the programmers were making Super Mario 64, they thought there would be no possible way to get more than that in normal gameplay.
Therefore, if you pick up the 256th coin, the value will ‘overflow’, resetting the value to 0. Nothing else should happen, it would just be a bit anti-climatic to see your score drop to 0 again.
