Now I'm interested where the 5 comes from.
I wonder too!
I'm betting on trial and error. Probably has a mysterious comment in the code, as a warning to other.
Source: I develop software and find these things are either deeply researched and analyzed scientific theory, or the result of guesswork and trial and error. At a ratio of about 95% and 5% respectively.

?95% being trial and error. At least where I work.
