I´m not completely sure, but I think it means "Please, make it 5 (animals)".

Because in Japanese, there is counter suffix that works like this for animals;

1 animal - ippiki
2 animals - nihiki
3 animals - sanbiki
4 animals - yonhiki
5 animals - gohiki

First of all, Gohiiki is a polite word of Hiiki, or 贔屓(ひいき). So they are are asking you your patronage (most of cases, to shops, restaurants, services, high-grade Ryokan etc.)

More frankly;
Please come back again and be our regular (or special) customer!
