Was going to say, use the latest version of hashcat and see what happens but appears you already have and it is now running. The case with working with hashes is you cannot simply "split" a hash into finding specific characters or parts of it. You need to find the exact match as that is what a hash is composed of.
So if you know your password is exactly 5 characters long than yes, your on the right track. However if you wallet password is say 28 characters long, you will not find the first 5 characters with your attack. So unless you have some idea of the password, brute forcing is not the way to go as it is very task heavy and will take decades on slower hashes.
