Online SharePoint List View exceed threshold (5000), but still able to see all items

Question

My SharePoint List View exceed threshold (5000), but I'm still able to see all the items. Even after I added a filter, and sort conditions.

I have tried adding a filter and sort conditions. I am expecting to see an error message:"The number of items in this list exceeds the list view threshold, which is 5000 items", instead I saw all the items which were 8800.

You can store up to 30 million items or files in a list or library. However, when a list view shows more than 5000 items, you may run into a list view threshold error.
