Accepted answer
Its SharePoint Online or SharePoint Server?

If its SharePoint Online then you cannot acheive this.

But if its SharePoint Server, then you can configure the Threshold value from SharePoint Central Administration.

Follow this steps:
go to your SP Farm's Central Administration.
go to the "Manage Web Applications" under the "Application Management" section.
select the "Web Application" where you migrate the site.
click the "General Settings" dropdown and select "Resources Throttling"
Update the value and save the settings.
Note: Increasing the value in ListView threshold will decrease the performance.
