That’s pretty much impossible to build in that time.

Their public plans are 8m (2025) and 5m (2024) respectively. While I’m sure many are stating ambitious build plans to prevent others getting some of Boris’s £5bn actually delivering on it is something else entirely. Unless you mean FTTP will hit 95% including Openreach but I’d still say that’s ambitious.
