8000km is about 5000 miles. However that's got nothing to do with how long the Holy family's Flight to Egypt was.
Their travels were from Bethlehem - just a few miles south of Jeruselem - to some unnamed location in Egypt. The largest city in Egypt at that time would be Alexandria. Just using a ruler on the map, the distance between these two cities appears to be about 320 miles (512km).
They may have cut a few dozen miles off their trip by stopping at some closer town in Egypt, but on the other hand, I'm sure they had to travel on roads not nearly as straight as my as-the-bird-flies measurement.
So, my best guess would be 300-350 miles. An extremely long trip in those days.
