Hi,
see the randomise help page on the FMRIB web pages for an explanation on what the number of permutations ("n") is all about.
http://www.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/randomise/index.html
Basically, it is the precision you determine your p-value with that increases with n. 5000 is actually the lower limit, 10000 are "better".
Cheers,
Cornelius
