On the schematic of the UV5r is easy to find that a RDA1846 is used. In the datasheet of the component is written "The RDA1846 can be tuned to the worldwide frequency band for Walkie Talkie from 400MHz to 500MHz and especially from 134MHz to 174MHz" etc etc
As obvious consequence the radio cannot tune anywhere outside that ranges, it doesn't matter what is on the display: it simply cannot.
BTW for the fm broadcast range a RDA5802 is used, it can tune 65-108MHz

Well, I just post the video to show you up what is happening. I can "monitor" this "interference" evereday, in many frequencies around 900 and 990mhz. As I said, I coul hear, once, loud and clean a communication around 930.700mhz. I really don't know if it is 2m-tunes side, I don't havy this technical infos and expertise. I can post another video showing the scan mode tuning many frequencis since 900mhz till 999mhz

I wonder if the UV-3R radios are capable of doing the same?
If one of the chirp developers want to try modifying the software, I can try it on my UV-3R ___
I had three vintages of UV5R on the service monitor last night. None of them would lock up at anything much above their stated range. None of them generated RF, nor would receive a +3dBm signal straight into their antenna jack.
Not conclusive evidence by any means, but I tend to think that the poster of the video is either experiencing a fluke, a weird harmonic, or perhaps is confusing audio coming from the 2m-tuned side of the radio.
