if u outfitted a anaconda and got a max jump range of 60lys, used j3 jumponium, then filled all the remaining optional internal slots with fuel tanks so you can fly as far as possible in supercruise before making the jump how far could u go in one jump?

There has been mention that it may become possible to get a boost when jumping from highly magnetic stars, such as neutron stars. I don't know how much, or whether jumponium will add to this as well.
With lots of fuel tanks you can travel a very long way. Yeah, your range will drop a bit, but won't totally nerf it. Corilois.io should be able to give you an idea by kitting it out with all fuel tanks and seeing how many jumps you can make and the impact on max range. Extrapolate from that how much you will do.
You could also go for economic routes. Not sure about distance, but with that build you might be able to make a thousand jumps without refuelling

FD said jumponium and neutron star jump boost dont stack.
That may be a good thing, otherwise it would be possible to get somewhere you couldn't get back from.
i mean flying in supercruise untill all the fuel but the required amount to complete the jump is gone
It doesn't matter how long you supercruise, only ship mass (fuel included) matters.
You could try this with a star you have, let's say 1 LY too short jump range for. Fly towards it in supercruise a bit over 1 LY, so the star marker on your HUD tells you're within range. Now try to jump.
You still can't jump there, as the calculation is between the stars, not from your actual location within or outside a star system.
Yes running in SC to use up your fuel will increase jump range as you lose mass
The Functions screen on the Right hand MFDU will give current jump range.
Don't burn too much fuel as to have less the maximum jump usage
