The body regulates vitamin D production from sunlight exposure. It cannot regulate orally taken vitamin D because by the time you absorb the supplemented vitamin D you have surpassed the regulation step.
You cannot get too much vitamin D from sunlight but you sure as hell can overdose by taking it orally.

That doesn't take from the fact that you shouldn't take those mega-doses multiple times in short course.
