The International Bureau of Weights and Measures standardized using thin spaces as a thousands separator and either a period or comma for a decimal separator.
I recommend not adopting the mindset of using a comma or period as a thousands separator, as all it will do is lead to confusion depending on which country you're in.
Not in the languages that I am familiar with. the big question is, whether it is before or after The Comma. The Comma does not need more qualifiers than that.
It is close to 5000 liters.
