I can't really tell from the photos, but this novice suspects someone has put a 5 speed freewheel on a flip/flop hub (intended to be SS/fixed).
I'm not so sure. I didn't take the freewheel off. The threads in the photo are on the opposite side of the freewheel - the non-drive side when it was on the bike.
