Not correct. From ftp.heanet.ie

/pub/centos/5.5/isos/i386>

4185118720 May 11 09:59 CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-DVD.iso
That's 4.1GB

/pub/centos/5.5/isos/x86_64> 

4393723904 May 13 23:37 CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso
That's 4.3 GB

432361472 May 13 23:42 CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-2of2.iso
That's 432Mb

So total is 4.7Gb approx

Maybe you downloaded CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-2of2.iso twice.
