Even i read some time back that they were jumping to 5. However, is it a significant release. I thought 1.4 had more stuff in it.?

I think they mean that the j2se has been there since '98 (not version 5). Since i have been using the beta v2 prior to that, i think they literally mean J2SE (which was earlier called the JDK). I dont know when the name changed, perhaps it changed in 1998.

Try Sun, they might have a clue :-)
