They are playing 6 games, not 5. So the last game is tomorrow.

I am not sure about it.
The 6th game is clearly unimportant to decide that Junior is the winner of the match so it is possible that it is not going to be played.

Peter Leko also was supposed to play 6 games against Mikhail Gurevich in the candidate matches but only 4 games were played.

which match ?

Pretty short memory Thorsten. Check with ChessBase, for which program was to play the WCC, Kramnik, in 2002.

Junior won the first 5 right out of the gate but slowly was overtaken by Fritz, which won the lengthy match.

A 6 game match is meaningless.
