"I want to create an array doing +5 the previous number"
1+5 = 5 ???
How do you add five to one ... and get five ?
"How can I do it?"
I guess you will either have to redefine addition, or redefine the natural numbers.

start_num = 1;
end_num = 15;
x=[start_num:5:end_num];
% note that 15 is not included since 1+5+5+5=16
If you actually want the example you gave:
end_num = 15;
x = [1 5:5:end_num];
