I assume they wrote it as 5000 and it got changed to 5E3 by the minifier as it saves a byte?

Yeah that'd be my guess. Minifiers squeeze every byte. true and false get minified to !0 and !1 respectively.

Never heard of a minifier. It's a brilliant idea though.

Most websites use them. Smaller file -> less bandwidth -> lower costs.
