To make the big leagues means that you have reached the pinnacle of your chosen endeavor. You have reached the top.
This term alludes to professional baseball which has several different levels of minor league teams. When a player gets called up to the big leagues (sometimes called the show or just the bigs) this signifies he has "made it". He's not in Kansas any longer. He is in the big leagues.

"Make the big leagues" means being at the top level of one's profession-- as in baseball, where there are various levels of minor league teams. Only the best players "make it to the big leagues" i.e. the National or American leagues.
