Osm5XmlHandler was renamed to OsmXmlHandler (no idea what the 5 meant, I always 
confuse it with 05m)

It represents the version number of the API. When mkgmap was first written, OSM had a different XML format where ways were made up of lists of "segments" which consisted of two points. That was version 0.4, and the classes were named OSMXmlHandler (later OsmXmlHandler) and so on.

Version 0.5 of the api was not backward compatible and so for a while mkgmap supported both and the classes implementing the new version where named starting Osm5

The next and current version of the api 0.6 did not have changes that affected us.
