what are 5% cans?

Higher alcohol content, and tastier IMO. Heineken is usually 5% in most countries, I read on their site that only Ireland and 1 other country have it officially at 4.3%. A lot of these "yellow piss" breweries brew to a higher % and dilute it down, so the 4.3% we get is probably the exact same batch but just diluted down more. Guinness draft is also diluted down.

My local eurospar had 5% cans alongside more expensive 4.3% cans. Heineken will fix the prices themselves, the 5% ones were intended for the scottish market and must have been imported through another channel -obviously the wholesale price in Scotland is a lot lower if they can do this.

The kegged heineken here is brewed in Ireland, the bottles and cans are brewed in Holland (I think some used to be brewed here too).
