Why was Berkeley DB-6.0.20 reverted to Berkeley DB-5.3.28?

These both are way behind, Berkeley DB 18.1 (18.1.40)

This is not a true open source version.  Oracle is not friendly to open source.  In your link below you have to "sign in" to get the source code.

Note that Arch and Debian also use version 5.3.28.

Berkley DB was at DB-6.0.20 in BLFS Version 7.5, WHY REVERT?

Because Oracle makes changes that break open source packages.
