The word is lustrum. As used in Rooster Cogburn (1975, John Wayne, Katharine Hepburn): Judge Parker: You have served this court for almost two lustrums.

Rooster Cogburn: What's a lustrum, Judge?

Judge Parker: Five years. Don't interrupt me. That's plenty authoritative for me, but the Oxford English Dictionary also gives a simple definition for lustrum as: a period of five years.
