I haven't had any issues since and I haven't surpassed the 220F mark even with aggressive driving. I figured since there is more volume that it would take longer to heat up the oil. I don't have an oil cooler yet. Could someone correct me if I'm wrong?

You're going to blow your engine up! You're overfilling your engine. Unless you have a bigger oil filter, extra oil can damage your engine and it may NOT be covered under warranty since it was YOUR decision to overfill (Nissan doesn't recommend filling the crank more than 5 1/8 quarts)
