Flat folder structures wouldn't change how Jellyfin shuffles since it uses item IDs, and not paths, for the queued items.
In the web UI the default is 100 items per page. You CAN set the number higher. Or you can set it to zero and it will load everything (not recommended). Still doesn't change the shuffle behavior.
Shuffling is mostly handled by the client, btw. And different clients will handle shuffling differently and have different maximum queue sizes. But I'm not aware of any clients that will shuffle entire video libraries. Some don't even have a shuffle option (Findroid).
