Drill of 14 mils is hard coded in software ( for drill assistance for hand drilling).
I find it good size for drilling guide purpose. If you need bigger holes, than you must produce gerbers without drill holes open, than open gerbers in gerbtool, import nc-drill and make composite layers with them ( copper layer is dark, drill layer clear).
Now you have full control over drill sizes.

Hope this helps
