Cat 5e plugs on Cat 6 cable?

Hi there! I’m in the middle of wiring some runs for our office. It’s prewired with Cat 6 but the ends of one side are all cut off. I threw a Cat 5e male end on one wire and matched the cable order to the female end on the other side. The tester is sending out 12345678 but receiving 12543678.

Any ideas?

UPDATE: Thank you for all of the replies! I Double checked my wiring and the original wiring at the other end. Redid that cable as well as another. Same result. Flipped the 3rd and 5th wires and everything is fixed. There must be another junction somewhere that I can’t see. Oh well. Thanks again!
