Six sixxes = 36. What happens if the bowler bowls a no ball or wide. Thus the maximum number of runs a batsman can get can be unlimitted. Is there any rule restricting this ?

The maximum runs a batsman can score is 36. The man who has achieved it is Hershel Gibbs of South Africa. Wides and No Balls do not count toward the batsman.

The maximum runs per over is 36 runs. However, if the bowler bowls wide or no ball, then the runs become limitted - that is, the batsman can no longer get maximum runs in that over.
It is also possible to get more than 36 runs in an over, but it has never happened before. What I mean is, it is possible to get 7 runs in one over. If a bowler bowls wide and over the boundary, then we have 6 runs for being over the boundary and one run for wide - that equals 7 runs in one over.

No, but a batsman gets only 36 runs, as the extras are added to the team score only.

One cannot score of wide ball. For no-ball, if batsman score off the bat, that scored is credited to batsman, but not one run which is because of no-ball.
