COMMENTS
Compare the g.f. to: W(x)^5 = Sum_{n>=0} 5*(n+5)^(n-1)*x^n/n! where W(x) = LambertW(-x)/(-x).
Compare to a g.f. of A000522: Sum_{n>=0} (n+1)^(n-1)*x^n/(1+n*x)^n, which generates the total number of arrangements of a set with n elements.

FORMULA
a(n) = (n-1)!*Sum_{k=1..n} 5^k/(k-1)! for n>0, with a(0)=1.
a(n) ~ 5*exp(5) * (n-1)!. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 10 2020
EXAMPLE
O.g.f.: A(x) = 1 + 5*x + 30*x^2 + 185*x^3 + 1180*x^4 + 7845*x^5 +...
where
A(x) = 1 + 5*x/(1+x) + 5*7*x^2/(1+2*x)^2 + 5*8^2*x^3/(1+3*x)^3 + 5*9^3*x^4/(1+4*x)^4 +...
PROG
(PARI) {a(n)=polcoeff(sum(m=0, n, 5*(m+5)^(m-1)*x^m/(1+m*x+x*O(x^n))^m), n)}
(PARI) {a(n)=if(n==0, 1, (n-1)!*sum(k=1, n, 5^k/(k-1)!))}
