Look at 5mm on a ruler: it's a tiny distance! I honestly wouldn't bother futzing with the wheel or trying to cold set the frame. You're not really going to gain anything from either. Just make sure that you have a reliable quick release that can pull the rear drop-outs against the hub. Once the wheel is in place, you should be able to adjust the brakes and derailleur so that they work without a problem.
