Silly us!  It appears that the functionality of "Empty Recycle Bin" is working "as designed".

Hello Brian,

Greeting!!

This is Shahnawaz from Microsoft Office 365 support. This email is in reference to the Case # 30126-7898643.

I would like to inform you that as per your concern, I checked with my senior resources & found that we cannot delete more then 2000 items from OneDrive Recycle bin through Modern view because it is by-designed. There are some scripts which can  be used to empty OneDrive Recycle bin but that can be done through Back end & not at contomers end. Hence if you want you can provide your Valuable feedback regarding O365 product from the below link.
