Preflop is fine.

I have played about 1500 hands at 6max, and from my limited understanding of the game, position is extremely important. I was also under the impression that SC's go down in value since there are less players and therfore, less chances for a multiway pot that these type of hands thrive on. Can you explain why this preflop raise OOP is okay?

It's five handed. He has a playable hand and position on half of his opponents.

Its okay because the game is 5 handed and no one has called one of his PF raises yet. You should start mixing in SC raises from EP, its healthy for metagame and makes you better postflop too
