(520,523,525,528,530)
And (535i,540i,525d,530d)

Eibach dont make springs for the m5 either so id question that chart to be honest, if you look up the part no.s listed on the chart using eibachs part catalogue they dont exist

Open to correction read it a long time ago memorys vague at best
It's from eibach's website.
What you're saying makes sense as fitting eibach springs to the 530d usually causes negative rake.
