I tried generating styled HTML but it doesn't contain the break-page

You did nothing wrong.
My answer below was incorrect. By default, all processing-instructions
are deleted even when you generate styled HTML (that is, XHTML+CSS).
This is done in <W2X_install_dir>/xed/remove-pis.xed
Fortunately this remove-pis.xed script can be parametrized to keep some
processing-instructions:
---
w2x -p edit.remove-pis.except break-page test.docx test.html
---
Reference:
Parameter "remove-pis.except" in "Table 2 Parameters which are specific
to w2x:xed/main-styled.xed" in
http://www.xmlmind.com/w2x/_distrib/doc/manual/index.html#edit_step
--> If you use desktop app w2x-app rather that command-line tool w2x,
1) Check "Convert to" and choose "Single-page styled (X)HTML".
2) Click the 'Clipboard+' button. This allows to copy to the clipboard
some basic w2x options corresponding to "Single-page styled (X)HTML".
3) Now check "Use text file containing w2x options".
4) Use a text editor to create a new w2x option file.
Let's call it my_options.txt.
5) Paste the contents of the clipboard in my_options.txt. You'll get
---
-o xhtml_css
-p convert.charset UTF-8
---
6) Append this line to my_options.txt:
---
-p edit.remove-pis.except break-page
---
7) Click the "Choose w2x options file" button and select my_options.txt
you have created.
This procedure is outlined here:

processing-instructions like <?break-page?>
Using a simple customization, you may instruct w2x NOT to remove <?break-page?> even
in semantic XHTML. (This is done in <W2X_install_dir>/xed/finish.xed)
Note the "generates XHTML+CSS documents" in
http://www.xmlmind.com/w2x/_distrib/doc/manual/index.html#limitations:

The Convert step generates XHTML+CSS documents having the following
specificities:
...
* Page breaks are translated to <?break-page?>. Column breaks are translated to
<?break-column?>. End of sections are signaled by <?end-of-section?>.
