My friend, there is more evidence (physical, scientific, literary, historical, etc) to establish a young Earth than there are evidences for the existence of Egyptian dynasties, let alone their supposed age.
We don't know for sure they go up to 5000 years. But even it they did, it would not be inconsistent with the timing of the Biblical Flood. We simply don't know when the Biblical flood happened. Many scholars have varying views. In addition, we derive all our knowledge about ancient Egyptian culture from artefacts. The presence of arterfacts older than the age of the flood does not necessary make them inconsistent. The artefacts could simply have been buried in the flood until we found them. Hence, they could have existed prior to the flood. One thing you need to understand is that the Bible never said how old the Earth is. Computations of 6000 years old are simply deduced from what is written in it. These deductions could be wrong. I am not one who would dogmatically cling to a date of exactly 6000 years old. I simply don't know. The computations of 6000 years could be off by a significant several hundred years. So is your supposed age of your Egyptian Dynasties. Some scholars think that Egyptian culture extends to no more than 3000 years old. Some think up to 12,000 years. We simply don't know for sure.
