If the clutch is still operable see if you can move the car, get it to roll a bit, then try to pull it out of 5th.

Then to be safe avoid 5th, if you can still drive the car, you may have syncro problems, search for it here see if your car matches the description.

The shifter getting stuck in gear is a indication od broken synchronizer keys the the 5/6 assembly, The keys are a stamped steel that is pretty thin from the factory and they eventually break causing the shifter to get stuck and bind. We have a set of upgraded billet steel keys that we use in our transmissions
