Look at the release number:

Release = 5.10

The "5" designates the major release - System 5. The number after the decimal point is the version - 10 in your case. I'm using version 9 and it reads like this when executing the uname -a command:

SunOS doomsday 5.9 Generic_118559-39 i86pc i386 i86pc

The release number 5.9 is listed after the server name: doomsday
