Yes, data validation will do it.
1. Click Data --> Validiation
2. In the Allow box select Decimal
3. In the Minimum enter 5 and in the Maximum enter 120
4. Click the Error Alert tab and in the Title enter: "Mile Range Invalid" and in the Error Message enter: "You have entered an invalid mile range. Please enter a value between 5 and 120."
See attached example for how it works. Try entering an invalid range in cell A2 and you'll get the custom error message listed above.
