Slightly out of the box, but probably legal.




6E8, moving the two right sticks of the 0. 9E8 might be possible, but I don't think that's the accepted way of making a digital 9.




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




g98 in Graham's Notation, where Graham's Number is g64.

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...

Wisest answer:




a. $5118^11$
By removing the two sticks of the zero and placing them on exponent :p




Debatable:




b. $5$^$118$ $= 5^118$ by using the caret symbol




Still debatable, allowing different sizes:




c. $11^5118$
Allowing that digits can have different sizes




Extremely debatable solution:




d. $5118! ge 5^16762$
by cutting sticks




This solution could be acceptable for mathematicians' haters...




e. $56/0 longrightarrow +infty$, yes, the divide symbol is smaller than digits...




All of these solutions still remain if you can:




flip by 180° the sheet of paper (or your computer), and that is also a debatable action !




Which gives :




a. $8115^11$

b. $8$^$115$ $= 8^115$

c. $11^8115$

d. $8115!$

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.

Without adding extra digits and keeping with the digital-like format,




938




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.

      Wisest answer:




      a. $5118^11$
      By removing the two sticks of the zero and placing them on exponent :p




      Debatable:




      b. $5$^$118$ $= 5^118$ by using the caret symbol




      Still debatable, allowing different sizes:




      c. $11^5118$
      Allowing that digits can have different sizes




      Extremely debatable solution:




      d. $5118! ge 5^16762$
      by cutting sticks




      This solution could be acceptable for mathematicians' haters...




      e. $56/0 longrightarrow +infty$, yes, the divide symbol is smaller than digits...




      All of these solutions still remain if you can:




      flip by 180° the sheet of paper (or your computer), and that is also a debatable action !




      Which gives :




      a. $8115^11$

      b. $8$^$115$ $= 8^115$

      c. $11^8115$

      d. $8115!$

      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.

      Without adding extra digits and keeping with the digital-like format,




      938




      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.
