Police can keep you around as long as they need as long as they need. The only requirement is that the reason for the initial stop is reasonable. I don't know who told you they are on a time limit, but that is inaccurate.

It is does not meet the requirements for harassment unless it is the same officer or a pattern of officer, shift, or location actions against and individual or group that is out of proportion to other enforcement in the same or comparable areas.

I have been in the situation of being genuinely harassed by an officer before. Nothing anyone has said here even comes close to meeting the requirements to even get a complaint beyond a piece of paper and a squad room punch line.
