Technically 5. b5 is also a fork. Only one of them can escape in a given turn (bu running or capturing the pawn).

@batgirl is making the point that this description is not a definition of a fork because it also describes a pin.

A Fork attacks two (or more) pieces simultaneously. A Pin or a Skewer attacks two or more pieces sequentially.
