The Errata file available at tsr.com has no note of this being changed. I think that a +6 is reasonable, but the number came straight from the horse's mouth. The +5 limitation was probably intended specifically for magical weapons and armor, which traditionally haven't had greater than +5 bonuses. Exceptions generally apply to any rule, so the +12 Hackmaster sword can certainly exist if the DM says so ^_^ A +6 enhancement bonus to a core Attribute (such as Strength or Charisma) would make sense, as the Attribute Modifiers increment once per every two points of the Attribute, for a clean extra 3 on that Attribute's modifier.
