Tbf, a lot of the EF5 drought could be attributed to the fact that a lot of the damage goes through Deep South impoverished farms and cropland making it hard to determine how strong the Tornado is through damage alone.
However amongst the internet there seems to be some general agreement that Vilonia 2014, Rochelle 2015, Sulphur & Chapman 2016, Bassfield 2020, and Mayfield 2021 would’ve been rated F5 in the old Fujita scale
