No, it doesn't. The chunk size is determined by BITS_PER_CHUNK. The
type, uint8_fast_t, can indeed store values outside the "chunk value
range" but that doesn't mean you should try to store 467 in a 2-Bit
number. If you compile the program in debug mode, there will be an
assertion failure to let you know that 467 is outside the range.

This is now different from trying to store 300 in an unsigned char.
