Without taking too many liberties with the possibilities when it comes to rules...
I would say that the largest number made by moving only two sticks and without invoking any sort of exponents is:
15118 created by moving the top sticks from the zero to make a one in front of the 5...

Without going too far out of the box:
15118 by removing the top and bottom matches from the 0 (creating 2 ones) and using them to create a one at the front
Actually, that should be:
51181 using the same method but putting the new digit at the end.

So far out of the box it's probably illegal.

You can do this by
Removing the two matches on the left side of the zero and turning on horizontal to make the 0 a 3, and the other match to the top right of the 5 to turn it into a 9.
