Mining 5 blocks in a row! Is this a real problem??

I understand and I agree, but regardless the game theory and the disincentives to destroy bitcoin for miners, technically speaking mining 5 blocks in a row could give them the chance to "rewrite" the blockchain history for those blocks?

The miners have no incentive to disrupt the blockchain (e.g., no reward for doing so and everything to lose due to the trust damage this would cause), despite the lack of motivation to harm the network, could they technically pull this off?

I mean, in this case as shown in the image, could they actually "rewrite" the blockchain history for those blocks. 
For example, they could perform a double-spend attack by reversing transactions in those blocks? 

Would love to hear your thoughts on this! Thanks.
