CPU-z is reporting wrong. E5630 is a quad-core, but these are hexa-cores. These early X5650 ES have the same x19 multi and x20 turbo tho, and maybe that's why CPU-z gets confused.

These early BIOSes will probably get better, and it will hopefully take SR-2 to BCLK210+ soon. But until then a retail X5660 (with x21 multi) should be a better option than X5650 (with x20) for getting the potential OC out of these CPUs.
