True; there are exactly five. On a simple module, the central element $Y$ acts as zero: its image is a submodule, and surjectivity would contradict $Y^6=0$. The nilpotent central elements annihilate simple modules argument shows that the action factors throughby the Chinese remainder theorem. Therefore the simple modules are one-dimensional withThis also rules out hypothetical infinite-dimensional simple modules, rather than counting only finite-dimensional ones.
