Try, Try, Try again, a correction from someone who knows!

The marathon rewards tryers and if you can prove that you have entered and been rejected five times

you don't have to provide any proof.

snipped - (and the marathon will have records of this)

yes, they will. they keep a record of who enters and how many times.

you will get automatic entry on your sixth attempt - but you'll have to contact them to let them know.

no, you don't have to contact them, providing you enter the race for a 6th consecutive time you get an automatic slot for not getting in during you last 5 attempts.

i entered every year from my 18th birthday and finally got in on my 6th entry in 1994.
