5-0 became a slang term for police after the hit show "Hawaii Five-O." The show was centered around a fictional division inside the State-Police of Hawaii and carried the same name as the television show ("Hawaii Five-0").
The division's name gets its origin from honoring the fact that Hawaii was the 50th state to become apart of the United States of America.
