We really should have a 1-10 rating system.

Anything 6 and above would prove Global Warming since we haven't used those numbers before.

Hurricane Milton went from a Category 2 to a Category 5 in a few hours

A Category 5 means that the winds are at least 157mph. But since 1980, we've had 5 hurricanes that had winds greater than 192mph... and Milton has already reached 180mph. So now they're considering adding a Category 6 for those that are significantly worse than the minimum Category 5.
