That is the unstripped, uncompressed image. You can either strip this image:
glaubitz@node54:/data/home/glaubitz/linux> ls -lh vmlinux
-rwxr-xr-x 1 glaubitz users 274M Oct 8 17:09 vmlinux
glaubitz@node54:/data/home/glaubitz/linux> strip vmlinux
glaubitz@node54:/data/home/glaubitz/linux> ls -lh vmlinux
-rwxr-xr-x 1 glaubitz users 27M Oct 8 17:09 vmlinux
glaubitz@node54:/data/home/glaubitz/linux>
or pick the ready-made images, already compressed from arch/powerpc/boot:
glaubitz@node54:/data/home/glaubitz/linux> ls -lh arch/powerpc/boot/zImage*
