'selection' always is a list in the Finder - no need to coerce it, and
'repeat' for an empty list does not error nor waste any time, so the 'if'
clause is not necessary. This can therefore be pared down to
tell application "Finder"
repeat with eachItem in (get the selection)
set the label index of eachItem to 5
end repeat
end tell
which is more or less what Daniel sent in, give or take unnecessary
variables.
