Carboys from different origins will be of different heights and diameters. Might be more accurate for you to measure the diameter of your carboy and then use the basic volume formula of a cylinder to determine the height for five gallons.
edit: It won't make much difference in volumes of CO2 if you add priming sugar for 5 gallons but only bottle 4.5 gallons.

^This. Or you can just add 125 grams of sugar and call it good.
I would normally but this batch need more volumes then 2.5
