That is the case, no one reached that level beside Roger and Whitebeard and I doubt many people gonna get that bounty.
My bet is Teach,Dragon and Xebec. Shanks most likely reach 4.8-4.9B close to that range but not above.
In the end only PK lvl characters will get 5B range.
There is a reason why Kaido,Big Mom,Shiki and other top tiers wont reach 5B, since they aren´t PK lvl characters.
And Oda said it himself, if Akainu would be a pirate, he would take it within one year, something Linlin,Shanks and Kaido failed over 20years, Linlin and Kaido needed alliance to have a chance, Akainu has himself the potential to became a Pirateking.
The signs are pretty clear.
Only 5B guys are PK lvl.
