John:
  Yes, it is supposed to be X5 and X6.  If you didn't cut the leads on the 
old xtals, they should be reusable (assuming they were not damaged by heat 
during their removal).  Place the board down (upside down) so that the xtal 
shell rests on something to hold it firmly against the bottom of the board 
and solder.

best wishes,
