Because any number that ends with those numbers can be divided by a number. For example, 10 can be divided by 2 and 5, 4 can be divided by 2...

However, 2 is a Prime number; it's just numbers that END with 2 that aren't prime, like 12. 5 is exactly like 2, but a number that ends with 5 can be divided by 5.
