How long does the train journey from Frankfurt to Salzburg take?

Unfortunately the question is too vague to offer exact timings as it is not clear whether you are referring to Frankfurt am Main or Frankfurt an der Oder.

Assuming you do mean Frankfurt am Main, the next question that arises is which station do you wish to travel from in Frankfurt a.M. and which station is your end station in Salzburg....

Assuming you are travelling From Hauptbahnhof to Hauptbahnhof (main station to main station) the shortest journey will take 5 hrs 18 mins. This will involve travelling from Frankfurt a.M. to Munich on the Intercity Express (ICE) and then changing to a Eurocity train (EC) for the rest of the journey.

It is possible to travel on one train (ICE) for the whole journey, however the shortest travel time is then 5 hrs 54 mins.
