Morphology
five-star + rating
The meaning 'highest standard on a five-point scale' is directly derivable from the parts: 'five-star' (five + star indicating top-quality rating) combined with 'rating' (an evaluation or score). This numeric+star evaluative pattern is cross-linguistically common and follows a straightforward compositional logic, so a B1 learner who knows the constituents will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Five-star rating comes from the simple picture of giving five bright stars to show how good something is; imagine a hotel or product shown with five shining stars. Because five is the top number on a common five-point scale, a five-star rating means 'the best' or 'highest quality'.
