I do not know what version your info reference is but my latest
git-versions info page documents the usage of 2/5 date format.
(info "(org) The date/time prompt")
Then the info page is wrong and the docstring to `org-read-date' states:
"The prompt will suggest to enter an ISO date, but you can also enter
anything which will at least partially be understood by
`parse-time-string'."
What `parse-time-string' understands I can not find well documented and
it may be a bug or something there but who knows where its behavior is
documented?
(I get the same wrong result in my date prompt when trying 5/21.
Org-mode version 6.36trans (release_6.36.154.g6bad)
GNU Emacs 24.0.50.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.1) of 2010-06-01 on eee)
