What you need to do is create a page style for your pictures. Then
when you create the "page break" on page 5, list the name of this new page
style as the next style. Then at the bottom of page 9, create another
"page break" and list your page style for 3 columns as the next style.
(This second page break would only be needed if you have a page 10 and it
contains 3 columns.)
As far as numbering the picture pages 6 through 9, you would probably
want to use the offset function in the page break window.
The Getting Started Guide has a chapter on styles that includes this.
It is available at http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/index.html.
