Not much, their kids would genetically be more similar to siblings than cousins but no reall strange things would ensue.
This is all hypothetical anyway because there's only ever been one set of identical quintuplets in recorded history (the Dionne quintuplets in Canada).

hi...even though the parents are physically identical then too their genetic constitution will differ a lot....ths is due to crossing over which occurs during cell division...n so their children will ofcourse not b identical....

you cannot get identical male and femali twins/quintuplets. if they are not both male or both female, then they are not identical.

As cool as it would be, their kids would not be identical. Genetic drift would cause a difference in the genes that show up in new generation.
