The FBI could not surveil 500 suspected terrorists 24/7 much less 5,000 of them.

It takes about 20 agents minimum (working in shifts) to watch one guy 24/7, that would mean 100,000 "street agents" alone just to watch all the suspects. There are about 12,000 FBI agents in total for all missions.

IOW, fatalistic Islamicazis who plan to die anyway are basically free to roam and plan and conduct ops just as they were prior to 9-11.
