Lynwood, Those specs are more than likely for a pull behind travel trailer, not a fifth wheel.
Know one should be using the manufactures max fifth wheel tow rating anyway. In most cases they are WAY overstated. One should only use the trucks payload capacity while choosing a truck/camper combination.
Take the truck in my sig for example, Its fifth wheel max tow rating is 23,500 lbs. No way could I or would I tow any fifth wheel that heavy. It would put me at 4700+lbs of pin weight alone without counting hitch/passengers/fuel/stuff in truck and bed etc.
