Answer 1

The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale for rating hurricanes is a 1-5 rating based on the hurricane's present intensity. This is used to give an estimate of the potential property damage and flooding expected along the coast from a hurricane landfall. Wind speed is the determining factor in the scale, as storm surge values are highly dependent on the slope of the continental shelf and the shape of the coastline, in the landfall region. Note that all winds are using the U.S. 1-minute average. This scale has never included intensities greater than 5.

Answer 2

it is possable they are talking about the
BEAUFORT SCALE: Specifications and equivalent speeds for use on land

10 m above ground
miles/hour knots

Answer 4

The scale actually only goes up to 5. There was a movie in 2005 about a possible "Category 7" storm that wipes out civilization. In an article about the movie, there is this quote: "But what about a Category 7 like the one featured in Sunday’s television movie? Officials say there's no such thing. The scale only goes up to 5, and even a storm that size is extremely rare."

So pretty much Category 7 storms don't exist in real life, but they do in Hollywood :)
