from ":help {subject}":

|                                               *{subject}* *E149* *E661*
| :h[elp] {subject}     Like ":help", additionally jump to the tag {subject}.
|                       {subject} can include wildcards like "*", "?" and
|                       "[a-z]":
|                          :help z?     jump to help for any "z" command
|                          :help z.     jump to the help for "z."

You have to escape the opening bracket:

  :help :\[range]

works.

Regards,
Jürgen
