Okay, so the day Destiny was revealed, there was this ViDoc. I'm assuming the "5 people?!?!" was about me saying something about a guild with a total of 5 other people? (In a different thread)
In the ViDoc, there's a couple frames where you see 3 players partied up in a menu type thing before they pick what they're going to do. Above their party is a "3/6" squad type thing. So I assume, you can only party up with 5 other players. This is speculation.
Now, numerous articles were released when Destiny revealed Destiny. All basically the same, most recalled a story being told by Joseph Staten, and his 'story' with Destiny. He and Jason Jones went on a mission to get some 'loot' from a Dust Palace. The enemy they were fighting were called Cabal, and these guys are big. So they tried to sneak their way in, but alas, the Cabal spotted them and they started to fight. Outnumbered, they were doomed, when a player (not in their party, but due to the magic of their behind the scenes matchmaking system) joined their game (even though they were doing their own thing in the same place), so basically they started to share the world. And so this player helped the 2 players in distress out.

No, not your article, another one. But I suppose that makes sense if it said 3/6. And I guess I didn't see any articles explaining them playing a portion of the game and saying what was going on and such.
