The first thing to notice is that the event of seeing a car is a Poisson process. Recall that in the Poisson distribution, the probability of $k$ events occurring within a timeframe $t$ is
$$
P(N=k) = \frac{ (\lambda t)^k e^{- \lambda t}}{k!}
$$
where $\lambda$ is the mean event rate. Now, let's consider the probability of seeing no cars in the time window. This probability is
$$
P(N=0) = \frac{(\lambda t)^0 e^{- \lambda t}}{0!} = e^{- \lambda t}.
$$
We can use this formula to derive a relationship between the probability of seeing no cars in a 20 minute window and the probability of seeing no cars in a 5 minute window. See that
$$
P(N=0, t=20) = e^{-20 \lambda},
$$
$$
P(N=0, t=5) = e^{-5 \lambda},
$$
implies
$$
P(N=0, t=20) = P(N=0, t=5)^4.
$$
We know that
$$
P(N=0, t=20) = 1 - P(N \geq 1, t=20) = \frac{16}{625}
$$
and so
$$
P(N=0, t=5) = \sqrt[4]{\frac{16}{625}} = \frac{2}{5}
$$
and finally we come to our result. We calculate the probability of seeing a car in a 5 minute window as
$$
P(N \geq 1, t=5) = 1 - P(N=0, t=5) = 1 - \frac{2}{5} = \frac{3}{5}.
$$
The probability of seeing a car in a 5 minute window is $60\%$.
