I think the reason you think it is odd is that you don't see the
different between a x.y and a x.y.z release.  See
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/release-proc.html
for an overview of the 4.X/5.X release history.  This is also
discussed extensivly in the mailing list archives.
