It's possible to shift out of gear if you feather the throttle and match RPMs well, maybe you're doing it in 5th because the speed you are going is right at that point.

Look it up, but 5th gear usually runs 1:1 with the input shaft. That means they are both spinning at the same speed. There is not that much inertia holding it in place like the other gears, where the output is running faster than the input.

5th gear is not 1:1, its overdrive. fourth is usually the 1:1 ratio for most 5 speeds
