The vncserver command is just a perl script.  If you take a look at
the script itself you will see that specifying ":5" is just used to
calculate the port number, it has no significance beyond that.  Since
you manually specified a port number, the ":5" is basically ignored.

I take part of that back.  It does appear to also be used for the
naming of the log file.
