Here is an awk approach that might work:
Code:
awk '
        FNR == 1 {
                c += 1
        }
        {
                A[c,FNR] = $5
                m = m < FNR ? FNR : m
        }
        END {
                while ( ++j <= m )
                {
                        while ( ++i <= c )
                        {
                                printf "%s\t", A[i,j]
                        }
                        printf "\n"
                        i = 0
                }
        }
' dir[1-3]/xyz*
