The website uses the wrong part of the user agent to check the browser version. They use navigator.appVersion and that property is about the Mozilla/5.0 part of the user agent, so they always see a Firefox 5 version for any Firefox version. They would have to look at the Firefox/71.0 part of the user agent to get the actual Firefox version.
