For 6 bills a piece, I would hope so..
However, unless something is radically different, they look to be a glorified air shock. And, if you actually tried to race with them, most likely they would heat up and lose their effectiveness.

I think they are bragging up the rated capacity of just the valve. I don't think the seals or even the shock body would last long at that pressure.
Hydraulic rams hit those pressures so I don't doubt that it can be done. However, lets think of the force.
5K psi on a 2.5" shock, even if we remove .75 worth of surface for a shock shaft, gives almost 25K worth of lift per corner. Course, that is if the shock is similar to an air shock. If it's more conventional (with no outer coilover I kinda doubt it) then things change obviously.

Monster trucks use two at every corner and still blow them up.
1500HP and 10,000lbs flying 30 feet in the air might just be considered abuse.
But the couple monsterjam guys that can drive run coilovers and bypasses in front engine rigs.
