Hello,
the groups of order 5^3 are the following
(1) cyclic group C_{125}
(2) abelian group C_{25} x C_5
(3) extraspecial 5-group of order 125 and exponent 5: C_5 \ltimes (C_5 x C_5)
(4) extraspecial 5-group of order 125 and exponent 25: C_5 \ltimes C_{25}
(5) elementary abelian group C_5 x C_5 x C_5.
(Note that A \ltimes B is a split extensions with A acting on the normal
subgroup B.)
In general, the groups of order p^3 were classified by Otto Hoelder, "Die
Gruppen der Ordnungen p^3 , pq^2, pqr, p^4.", Math. Ann., 43: 301 - 412,
1893.
As 1625 = 13*5^3, a group G of order 1625 has a normal Sylow subgroup P of
order 125. Now Schur-Zassenhaus show that P has a complement in G, that is, G
is isomorphic to the split extension C_{13} \ltimes P. Due to order reasons,
the cyclic group has to act trivially, that is, G is isomorphic to the direct
product C_{13} x P.
Hence, you obtain all groups of order 1625 by adding a direct factor C_{13} to
every group (1)--(5) of order 125:
gap>NumberSmallGroups(1625);
5
gap>List(AllSmallGroups(125),x->IdSmallGroup(DirectProduct(x,CyclicGroup(13))));
[ [ 1625, 1 ], [ 1625, 2 ], [ 1625, 3 ], [ 1625, 4 ], [ 1625, 5 ] ]
Hope this helps,
Heiko
