Your government decides the speed limits. Under normal circumstances one can get a ticket/bill for speeding at serveral speed limits after that max limit you can even be charged to go to court for another review of the situation and the "danger" might or might not have caused. Then you will get a ticket/bill for the max ammount of money plus the damage you could have done.

Can you exceed the speed limit by 5 mph when passing another vehicle?

No. The speed limit is exactly that - the LIMIT. A police officer would PROBABLY (this is not guaranteed in any way) let you get by with 5 mph if they observed you passing (provided everything else you did was legal), but there is no exception made to the law in regards to speed limits for passing. You're still bound by the speed limit of that roadway.
