It depends on the value of the EIGRP SRTT (smooth round trip timer).
I've never seen the formula documented anywhere, but based on experience
it appears that once the SRTT value crosses a certain threshold, the RTO
jumps to 5000.

Subject: EIGRP - RTO value
To: ccielab@groupstudy.com
Hi, can anyone please confirm if it is normal to have a RTO value of
5000 in
the output of a show ip eigrp neighbors. I seem to be seeing this in a
lot
of devices. The RTO counter as defined means that "the amount of time
that
EIGRP will wait to retransmit a reliable packet from the retransmission
queue." I have read examples and seen a couple of posts that lean
towards
saying that this isn't good however I am not so certain if this is true
or
not. There seem to be no problems on the links (not dropping any pings)
and
the drop counters are not incrementing. The Q cnt is 0 which I am sure
is
good. Could someone please confirm the RTO counter. Thx
