To achieve the 10.9, Car & Driver did say that they sort of unlocked a special launch feature ("When fluid temperatures are right, the computer allows the engine to rev to nearly 3000 rpm, and the rear tires start spinning as if the M5 were rear-wheel drive. Release the brakes, the front wheels kick in, and the M5 pounds forward"). They also specified that the car will only do that a couple times, and without that launch it's not quite as quick.
So it wasn't gonna do 10s constantly regardless.
