Dang, I failed as a tool man. I had a set on the truck! LOL

The number stands for ft pound if it a 25 it's 25ft pounds of torque ect ect
You get a pass it was a socket the female part that went into.
You have to study up on tool reproduction!

Just doing what I do
I can answer the question.
The Torx numbering system was derived based on 2 things, the diameter of the screw fastener to which the head was to be applied and the torque range for that diameter screw fastener. This then resulted in a universal difference in the point-to-point diameter of the Torx head and the screw fastener diameter.
Torx numbering is based on group ranges. 1-10, 20-30, 40-5, etc. The first digit (0,1,2,3 etc) defines the group and the required difference in Torx head P-P diameter vs. screw fastener diameter. The second number defines the Torx size within that group range.
Here is a quick table I put together to show how it works...
This is also why there aren't Torx bits in every size within a group. Since the threaded fastener diameters don't vary that much within a group range as the sizes get larger, there isn't a need for every possible size within that range.
So there you have it, the numbers do have a logic.

Nope. A Torx 25 has a torque range of 12-14 lb-ft. A Torx 25 is a group 2 head and 5 is at the mid point of the group 2 range of 8-20 lb-ft.
Way to ruin the funI can answer the question.

Don't worry, you can stick to my original explanationWay to ruin the fun
Dave you actually scare even ME at times..........
Then someone throws in one of these.
