Highways with 5 or more exits within the same mile or sequence?

I was wondering, has anyone ever seen a highway with 5 or more exits within the same mile or sequence?  The most I have seen is 4, where each exit is given the suffixes A, B, C, and D.  If there were 5 exits, would the fifth exit be given the suffix "E"?  Some states use "E" for exits indicating the eastbound exit, with "W" indicating the westbound exit.

I-75 Cincinnati has exits 1B - 1G

I-90/94 Chicago has exits 51A - 51I

I-70 Kansas City MO has 2A - 2M (1 is skipped for some reason though some of those exits would better fit there.)

I-794 Milwaukee  has 1A-1H

I think New York state uses the E/W or N/S instead of A/B for such exits you describe.

On I-395 south, right as you cross the Potomac River, you've got seven exits in 0.7 miles (per my Google Maps mensuration):

Exit 10C - Northbound GW Parkway
Exit 10B - Southbound GW Parkway
Exit 10A -  Westbound Boundary Channel Drive/Pentagon North parking
Exit 9 - Eastbound on Boundary Channel Drive (signed as Clark Street, which doesn't exist in that part of Arlington)
Exit 8C - Southbound Jeff Davis Highway (left exit)
Exit 8B - Northbound Jeff Davis Highway
Exit 8A - Westbound Washington Boulevard/Pentagon South parking

Does the alphabet loop in Kansas City count? I know there are over 20 exits its entire loop, so I imagine that at least five are within a mile of each other.
Every day is a winding road, you just got to get used to it.

The Atlantic City Brigantine Connector has exits A, B, and E-H (no numbers, just letters), though they are not all within one mile.
