Well, if you look down, you'll see your hand has five fingers. There's an interesting essay by Stephen J Gould in the collection "Eight little piggies" on the whys and wherefores of having five digits. Anyway, since we (all) count base ten, five is a very convenient number when sizing containers. So I'm perhaps not understanding the question properly?
