That's true only if the aircraft is pressurized. The non-pressurized "G" is certificated for 6 seats since the pilots side window is an emergency exit, the pressurized version is certificated for 5 seats.

FAR 23 has a paragraph that says if the aircraft only has one entry/exit, its limited to 5 seats.
