Section 5.3 says:

5.3 Predefined Set Objects

   In a context that expects a route set (e.g.  members attribute of the
   route-set class), an AS number ASx defines the set of routes that are
   originated by ASx; and an as-set AS-X defines the set of routes that
   are originated by the ASes in AS-X. A route p is said to be
   originated by ASx if there is a route object for p with ASx as the
   value of the origin attribute.  For example, in Figure 15, the route
   set rs-special contains 128.9.0.0/16, routes of AS1 and AS2, and
   routes of the ASes in AS set AS-FOO.

   route-set: rs-special
   members: 128.9.0.0/16, AS1, AS2, AS-FOO


          Figure 15:  Use of AS numbers and AS sets in route sets.

   The set rs-any contains all routes registered in IRR. The set as-any
   contains all ASes registered in IRR.

5.3 Predefined Set Objects

   The set rs-any contains all routes registered in IRR. The set as-any
   contains all ASes registered in IRR.

Notes:

The section header for 5.3 is misplaced. It breaks 5.2 (definition and examples of route-set) at a place that does not make sense in context. The section break should be after the caption for Figure 15. The last two sentences (beginning with "The set rs-any") are the only text referring to predefined set objects.
