Apple has something similar where you hold the power + volume up for ~3-5 seconds and you get the Power/Emergency call screen but it also disables biometrics until after a successful PIN.

You just press the power button 5 times.

I thought that triggered the actual emergency call itself.

Nope. Gotta slide afterwards to make the call.
