I stumbled across that as well. For all I can tell, the filter syntax
for a list of parameters to a filter argument was changed and the
documentation for the pan filter never updated. Apparently, the eight
filters named in the source below require you to use '|' instead of
':'.

libavfilter/avfilter.c:
#if FF_API_OLD_FILTER_OPTS
            if (   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "format")     ||
                   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "noformat")   ||
                   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "frei0r")     ||
                   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "frei0r_src") ||
                   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "ocv")        ||
                   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "pan")        ||
                   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "pp")         ||
                   !strcmp(filter->filter->name, "aevalsrc")) {
            /* a hack for compatibility with the old syntax
             * replace colons with |s */

I believe your filter should be as such:

'[0:1][0:2][0:3]amerge=inputs=3,pan=5.1:FL=c0|FR=c1|FC=c2|LFE=c3|BL=c4|BR=c5'

because the first parameter is l=5.1, the second
outdef=FL=c0|FR=c1|FC=c2|LFE=c3|BL=c4|BR=c5, and the ':' separates
parameters.

Just guessing,
I might submit a patch,
Moritz
