I don't completely understand this potential problem, but there is a solution.
Apparently, there is some sort of potential glitch with the Fuji system of numbering images. Each folder that the camera creates on the SD card can hold 999 images. At that point it creates another folder, up to a maximum of 999 folders. The problem begins when "Folder 999" has 999 images. I don't think this involves having almost a million images on a card, though. It seems that when you delete the images and reformat the card, Fuji tends to continue with Folder 999 and Image 999, so you can't add pictures.
I watched a video last night on YouTube by Pal2Tech with a solution to this problem. Unfortunately, I can't post that link in the Main section. You can find it easily enough doing a search for Pal2Tech.

The problem is described by Fuji as follows:
X Series and GFX System Cameras Affected:
• The models that do not depend on the firmware version
GFX100, GFX100S, GFX50S II, X-Pro3, X-T4, X-S10, X-E4, X-T30 II and X100V
• The models that depend on the firmware version
GFX50S (Ver.4.00 or later), GFX50R (Ver.2.00 or later) and X-T3(Ver.3.20 or later)
Memory Cards Affected: SDXC memory card
Computer Operating System Affected: macOS only. The incompatibility does not affect Windows users.
About the incompatibility
While the current firmware versions allow these X and GFX series cameras to internally write and store 9,999 frames*1 to a single folder, it has been observed that if more than 4,000 files are written in-camera to a single folder on an SDXC card and directly accessed using macOS the firmware incompatibility creates two potential scenarios:
