This is what you say when someone says something incorrect or stupid. When you say "no fives" correctly, then you get to grind you finger across the persons neck as hard as you can.
"So, Nixon was a bad democrat, huh?"
"NO FIVES!! Lemme get that neck..."
"Aww man!"
==Action happens==
"Oww!"
"Gotcha!"

Five by five is a radio communications expression that means 'loud and clear'. One of the fives represents the S units of reception strength. The other five is a rating of the signal clarity. Five by five is a good, clear signal. The radio use of this expression goes back to the 1950s: "'All right, testing, one-two-three-four. . .' 'Five by five, Mr. Holloran!'" (Hunter, Blackboard Jungle, 1954).
The more metaphorical meaning, popularized by Faith Lehane from the television show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, wasn't recorded until the 1980s.
The use of the word is primarily used in the military, or when discussing something similar.

Loud and clear. From military erminology. Old radios had two readings. Loudness and clarity rated from 0-5. Thus five by five means literally loud and clear.

Term meaning everything is OK.
The term comes from old radio slang. When communicating over radio, the operator would report the strength and clarity of the signal on a scale of 1 to 5 each. Therefore, if a radio operator described the signal as "five by five" it meant it was both loud and clear.
