This will be a huge undertaking. Simply because the choices are all there at this moment. What is this field used for? Is it for reporting, is it used in integrations? 

Assuming 1 - 5 on top level, will still need to apply on all the child tables (so if it's 3 on cmdb_ci_computer now, it's still 3 when it comes from the top), you can inactivate all choices on the child tables and make sure the only active ones are on the CMDB_CI table. After that, run a fix script to update all choices to the active choice with the same value. Depending on the number of CI's, you may want to run this in batches.
