I don't think so... From the man pages:
CustomLog "|bin/rotatelogs /var/logs/logfile 5M" common
This configuration will rotate the logfile whenever it
reaches a size
of 5 megabytes.
ErrorLog "|bin/rotatelogs /var/logs/errorlog.%Y-%m-%d-%H_
%M_%S 5M"
This configuration will rotate the error logfile whenever it
reaches a
size of 5 megabytes, and the suffix to the logfile name will
be created
of the form errorlog.YYYY-mm-dd-HH_MM_SS.
Oops sorry. Didn't look close. Initial "inspection" of log file
times looked like 5 mins.
NP. That was my first thought, too, even though I had copied the line
right out of the man pages. I had to read it again to make sure.
Unfortunately, it's more complex than that... check out this list:

Note the first two files on the list... the second file was created
*after* the first one, but the first one is newer. That is because
Apache is now logging to the first one, again.
In other words,
1. it stopped logging to nes.com-access.log.2008-08-20-12_36_56, and
created nes.com-access.log.2008-08-20-12_40_09
2. logged to that for awhile, then created nes.com-access.log.
2008-08-20-13_56_42
3. logged to that for awhile, and then *went back* to logging to
nes.com-access.log.2008-08-20-12_40_09
I verified this by inspecting the two files and checking the times in
the log. For example, these lines in nes.com-access.log.
2008-08-20-12_40_09
74.15.67.21 - - [20/Aug/2008:09:56:35 -0400] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/
1.1" 200 20 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT
5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)"
66.249.71.139 - - [20/Aug/2008:09:57:16 -0400] "GET /browse_item.html?

5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)"
And these lines in nes.com-access.log.2008-08-20-13_56_42
74.15.67.21 - - [20/Aug/2008:09:56:42 -0400] "GET /payment/form/ HTTP/
1.1" 200 2348 "http://www.newenglandstamp.com/"; "Mozilla/4.0
(compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR
2.0.50727)"
74.15.67.21 - - [20/Aug/2008:09:56:42 -0400] "GET /stylesheets/
public.css HTTP/1.1" 200 1416 "https://www.newenglandstamp.com/
payment/form/" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT
5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)"
Note that the time stamps in the second set are *between* the two
lines in the first set. i.e., Apache was logging to one file, then
switched to another, and then switched back...
As I said, I'm a newbie, but this seems a bit odd to me...
