Each table with-in the database is assigned an OID and is located inside the DB directory. So if there is a file-system limitation on the number of files with-in a given directory it would also be a limit to the number of tables that could be created for each database.
You could handle this with tablespaces. For example, create ten tablespaces, and then assign customer databases to them in round-robin fashion. This also lets you assign databases to different disks to balance the I/O load.
