Edit: See Anagogy's post below. I now believe it is likely that the OP's first quote refers to negatives in general being of a very large number, but that there are in fact very few Orion of fifth density because they are not interested in other selves and therefore not interested in a pyramidal Orion power structure.
My guess would be the earlier statement is correct in that there are a large number of fifth density Orion's; the latter statement referring to a few fifth density I think is in reference to a sub-group of the so-called Orion group - notice prior to Ra's answer, Ra states that it is incorrect that "a group from various galaxies should be named by one."
I think it's highly likely that the statement "There are fourth and a few fifth-density members of the Orion group" refers to a sub-group of the so-called Orion group, in particular the Orion affiliated SMC involved with Earth. Similar to how Hatonn is a SMC of the Confederation affliation, and how the Southern Cross is a SMC of Orion affliation; yet both the Confederation and Orion are themselves groups of SMC. (Similar to how if you asked a question about Hatonn, the answer would be that they are 4D group of Confederation, yet the Confederation is obviously more than just 4D in membership).

Quote:62.16 ▶ Questioner: Are there other groups of those who are on the service-to-self path joined with those from the Orion constellation? For instance, those of Southern Cross, are they presently working for the same type of harvest with respect to Earth?
Ra: I am Ra. These you mention of Southern Cross are members of the Orion group. It is not, shall we say, according to understood wording that a group from various galaxies should be named by one. However, those planetary social memory complexes of the so-called Orion constellation have the upper hand and thus rule the other members. You must recall that in negative thinking there is always the pecking order, shall we say, and the power against power in separation.
62.17 ▶ Questioner: By creating as large a harvest as possible of negatively oriented entities from Earth, then, the social memory complex of the Orion group gains in strength. Am I correct in assuming this strength then is in the total strength of the complex, the pecking order remaining approximately the same, and those at the top gaining in strength with respect to the total strength of the social memory complex? Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. To the stronger go the greater shares of polarity.
62.18 ▶ Questioner: Then what do the ones at the top of the pecking order of the Orion group— well, let me first ask this: Are we talking about the fourth-density group now?
Ra: I am Ra. There are fourth and a few fifth-density members of the Orion group.
62.19 ▶ Questioner: Then is the top of the pecking order fifth-density?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.
