In looking at the Turn Undead scripting in DM Genie but I do not see
accounting for the Knowledge(Religion) >+5 ranks synergy bonus to number
of turns per day. Can someone confirm/refute if this is correct?

From http://www.d20srd.org/srd/skills/knowledge.htm

Synergy
* If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (religion), you get a
+2 bonus on turning checks against undead.

Nothing about *number* of turn attempts.

So, you can add 2 to your turning check. I did not see anything about
more turns per day.

Dunno what edition you're using, but 3.5 offers only +2 to turn
*attempts* - not the number of times per day it can be done. The feat,
"Improved Turning" adds a class level to the attempt, and there are a
couple of others in _Complete_ _Champion_ and _Complete_ _Divine_ that
also improve turning, as well, but not the number of times per day.

That being written, memory, liar though it can sometimes be, assures me
that somewhere, in one or another of the splat books, is a feat that
will enable additional turns per day. I've not yet been able to find
it, however.

It's in the Players Handbook and it's called Extra Turning (+4 turning
attempts per day).

Thank you! For some reason, I searched everything *but* the PB!
