What does "five" mean?

At a restaurant, Sonny asks a man, who played a poker game:

Sonny Black: Fucking booths. $200 in action and what we have we got, five?

Man: We're taking a beating again this week, Sonny.

Best Answer

$5,000 (or perhaps $5 but probably not)

From the script I could find it was (originally?) worded differently which makes it even more clear

THE FLUSH OF A TOILET
as Sonny emerges from the bathroom, reading a slip of paper.
Crumples it, throws it in the trash.

         SONNY
      (complaining)
Two hundred in action and we came
out with 35. That fucking Boots-
he runs that book like an old
lady. That's gonna change.

Later in the script they're talking about money owned in the order of hundreds of thousands. So "$200 in action" and "five" probably means $200,000 and $5,000 rather than $200 and $5.
