bit-shift

I've got a really big number: 5799218898. And want to shift it right to 13 bits.
So, windows-calculator or python gives me:

5799218898 >> 13 | 100010100100001110011111100001 >> 13
70791            | 10001010010000111

As expected.

But Javascript:

5799218898 >> 13 | 100010100100001110011111100001 >> 13
183624           | 101100110101001000

I think it because of internal integer representation in javascript, but cannot find anything about that.
