I don't think that's more than a nudge towards reading. Especially if she's been asking for playdates over there anyway.
As for the freakouts...that sounds like she's got a strong sense of self-reproval. So when these things come to light it just explodes. She might be having a hard time reconciling her 5 y.o. want-grab impulses with socialization.
I don't think it's a big deal, but I would take it as a sign that she's probably pretty hard on herself. The way it's manifesting suggests that she's hyperaware of misconduct and is already internalizing a judgment against her.
