AT 5000 RPM? What is the redline on the XT 600? I had a XT 500 Do not remember my year exactly, I was thinking the redline was close to 5000 RPM and if that is the case you could be possibly hitting a REV limiter or floating the valves.
Have you adjusted or checked the Valve clearance lately along with the Timing chain tensioner to be sure all are within adjustment specs?
The example you gave where it does it in 2nd gear, 3rd gear, I am sure it would do it in any gear as it sounds exactly as if teh engine is running up against a rev limiter or mechanical limits of teh valve train.

If you can actually hear the engine race up to 5000 RPM you may have a serious problem. But more then likely you cant actually hear the engine rev up. If this is the case I would suspect a bad Tachometer ground wire.
