Ah, OK. Yeah, that makes sense. Last time I looked I couldn't actually find the term "hit dice" defined in the text and for some reason I can't fathom now I interpreted "hit dice" to mean "damage" instead.
Actually, I just found a reference to a "2-HD sword" under Weapon Use in Courses of Instruction (pg. 13). Though, I'm pretty sure your interpretation is still correct since each HD listed for a creature matches exactly with an additional 5 to average hit points.
