I see, if Rds is very low at an Vgs = 5V,
You look where they show the Rds(on) value in the data sheet (example below).
what Vgs and Vgs(th) stands for?
Vgs is the MOSFET gate to source voltage.
Vgs(th) is the Vgs threshold voltage (voltage at which the MOSFET just starts to conduct.
They use an Id value of 250μA conduction current in the example below.

Note that this is much less than the Id they use for specifying the on-resistance.
