The colors value indicates how many colors the terminal supports. Currently, it's set to 255, however, termite supports true rgb (256 256 256) colors.

According to man terminfo, the colors capability indicates how many colors the terminal supports.

xterm have a special terminfo for this called xterm-direct which claims full rgb support like this:

 ~ infocmp xterm-direct | grep colors
    colors#0x1000000, cols#80, it#8, lines#24, pairs#0x10000,

It should be the same in termite as termite also supports true rgb (or direct) mode.
