Dear Kenneth Zysk,
I see that BnF Sanscrit 132 images are online.
See for the online description: https://archivesetmanuscrits.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/cc96922b
See for the digitised microfilm: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b10082949x
This BnF Sanscrit 132 is described by Cabaton 1907 (https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b10536321f/f32.item), as noted in your Indian System of Human Marks, and by Jean Filliozat 1941 (https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k255707s/f105.item).
From Filliozat’s description we learn that this MS was part of the Hodgson collection and was donated to the future BnF in 1840 by the Société Asiatique.
It seems thus, to answer your question if I understand it correctly, that both shelfmarks (Société Asiatique C5 and Sanscrit 132 in the BnF) could designate one and the same manuscript.
One question of interest to me. Where did you find the shelfmark “C5”. I guess it is from J. Filliozat, “Catalogue des manuscrits sanskrits et tibétains de la Société asiatique”, JA CCXXXIII, 1941-1942, to which I have, unfortunately, no access.
If anybody on the list has a soft copy of this article by Fillozat, I would be very grateful for sharing it.
With very best wishes.

I should appreciate it if someone could confirm that these two manuscript listings are for the same work,
