Here we go - InputList will be your 650 elements.
SegmentedLists is an array of the results.
<cfset SegmentedLists = segmentList( InputList , 100 ) />
<cfdump var=#SegmentedLists#/>
<cffunction name="segmentList" returntype="Array" output="false">

<cfset var MyLists = ArrayNew(1) />
<cfset var CurList = 1 />
<cfset var CurItem = 0 />
<cfset MyLists[1] = ArrayNew(1)/>
<cfloop index="CurItem" array="#ListToArray(Arguments.List)#">

</cfif>
<cfset ArrayAppend(MyLists[CurList],CurItem) />
</cfloop>
