I'd say you answered your own question. If you could keep the cylinders
filled, then yes the torque should stay constant (not going up).
But... at some point you aren't going to be able to completely fill the
cylinders, and the torque will start dropping off.

Subject: [Land-speed] Enine Torque Theoretical Question...
Well, just sitting here wondering what to do with myself ... so I
thought I would see if I could arouse some moe conversation among the list..
The question of the week is: Why does the torque of an engine peak at
some rpm less that what the engine can turn? I am not a motoroligist so
I do not understand. Seems to me that if you can keep the cylinders
filled and then get the compressed air fuel mix lit at the proper time,
then torque should keep going up.
