Jörg Don't confuse indicator variables with classical correlation coefficients.
The maximum possible on your semi-variogram will be where all differences are 1. That is every pair is (1-0). And, of course, divided by 2. So the absolute maximum an indicator semi-variogram can show is 0.5. Computationally then, if 90% of your data are 1s and 10% are zeroes, the semi-variogram can still (theoretically) reach 0.5 if the 90% are all clustered and the 10% are, say, peripheral.
