Are you intending @5',0 or @0,5'?  As Grantspirate pointed out, if you have Ortho on and are "aiming" the cursor in the direction you want to go, the pure distance is all you need, not two coordinates.  But if you're giving it two comma-separated coordinates [with Dynamic input off in new-enough versions], without the @ it will want to go to that "raw" location based on the XY origin, not relative to the point you're starting from.

 

Search for "To Specify a Precise Point Location" in Help for all the possibilities.
