What's purpose of initializing bias like this?

I know this is for spatial pooling(selecting the most import patch)

But what is the purpose of setting to 0.02 every 5 to the bias weights?

If my understanding is right, it will encourage the selected patches more evenly distributed.

It's saying, pay a little more attention to the patches which spatial distributed evenly. (specifically, 108 out of 576)

Yes, you are right.
