They hit and should make the 5-point, right?

You mean for 54S-63R-31? Yes, that's right. People usually hit (third best) or hit and come up (fourth best), but making the 5pt is better by far.

Anchoring (24/20) is a smaller blunder than hit-and-split. For reference, the three plays are below. The analysis (which is more instructive than the answer) can be found in the book :)
