There are two separate limits, tongue weight and towing weight, and neither should be exceeded. Very frequently on class C's the tongue weight is relatively limited if you're towing a normal trailer, which is not a concern for flat towing. (Besides the hitch limits, you also should pay attention to the GCWR, GVWR, and GAWRs. With basically no tongue weight, the last two are fairly easy to meet.)
At any rate, you need to find out the hitch rating for your hitch installation. It almost certainly will not exceed 5000 pounds, but may well be lower. I suspect you would be better off towing a lighter vehicle.
