Considering 600 ms (0.6s) or less is what is desired, having 5.74s is way out of line. This is connection is at the server level and (usually) beyond your control. Surely Lighthouse flagged this as too long?
It would be more inline if you were in the US and the site you were trying to reach was in Australia.
Thanks for the reply Rob. Any suggestion how we can fix this ?

I’m sure the tools I mentioned pointed out some areas where page load time can be improved. You just need to follow up making the changes.
With that said, there are 4 Google connections being made for every page. As they are for CAPTCHA they only need to be on one or two pages; Contact, Sign In, etc. Making that change will also speed things up.
And change the Cache settings,
from: Cache-Control: private, proxy-revalidate, s-maxage=0
to: Cache-Control: private, stale-while-revalidate=3600
That will also speed up page load and take a bit of stress off the server.
