Below there are several completely different sentences.
draw, if the "same position has appeared for at least five consecutive
alternate moves."
This FIDE sentence talks about ONE SINGLE position staying the same over
["for"] 5 [full] moves.
As noted already, this is impossible in chess. Except in FIDE-clown-chess.

The rule says:
...the same position has appeared, as in 9.2b, for at least five
consecutive alternate moves by each player.
Quintuple repetition arises when, and only when, the position on the
chessboard is the same after moves n, n+2, n+4, n+6 and n+8 for any
nonnegative n, where n need not be an integer but 2n is indeed an integer.
Quintuple repetition arises if and only if a sequence of four
consecutive half moves will be repeated consecutively five times.
"if the same position is coming up 5
times in exact 10 moves". I think this implies that the move sequence (of four
half-moves) will be repeated 5 times.
