So named because it is in quintuple tempo, or* five*-four time. Such a magnificent piece!
Check out this rendition by Panzerballett. Not only do they play it in the standard 5/4, they also play it in a different time signature at the same time:
That was heaps of fun, and they were having fun too. One back atcha, vocal version with Carmen McRae and Brubeck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojOFORY93mk

Uncanny. I listened to Brubeck a few hours ago.
