While 5-6-7 seems to be a center-tapped winding, the voltage measurements are not consistent - you should have gotten 10.6v with 120v on 5-6 or on 6-7. So that winding was probably saturated when using only half of it. The fact you got different output voltages with the half windings further suggests the tap is not at the center of the winding, but the identical resistances suggests the opposite conclusion.
The high resistance of 5-6-7 should correspond to a high impedance and high voltage (unless it's really small, a couple ounces or so?). The apparent saturation at 60Hz further suggests it is not designed to handle frequencies that low. Definitely an oddball (i.e. paperweight).
