[NOTE: Angels and Devils are not mentioned in similar places or similar verses, so it's surprising that both are equal in quantity.]

5 - People and the Messengers are mentioned an equal amount of times (i.e. because whenever messengers are mentioned, the people they come to are also mentioned.)

Kitab al Ma'aajim is a book by an islamic scholar which counted the amount of times a word (the word count) is mentioned in the Qur'an.
There are much more other Terms which are related and are mentioned at a similar amount of Times [frequency] in the Qur'anic speech. The above are just a few examples.
NOTE: This Qur'an was a recited speech, Prophet Muhammad would not be counting the amount of times he said these words each. Which shows the miraculousness of it as a Book.
