I bet a lawyer would have a field day with it if someone read it as simply a 5 round limit and got hemmed up.
along with What Lars said, I have personal experience with a few different DOW officers that will check and make sure a mag or tube is limited to the stated number of rounds. If they can push in a round 1 over the limit in a shotgun or semi auto then you will most likely get a ticket.

i agree with you that it can be interpreted easily to state you can have a larger mag but not put in that many rounds, but based on experience it does in fact need to be plugged or blocked to limit the mag from accepting any more rounds.
