I haven't seen any leaks so I suppose I'm asking what might of happened to the other 2.5 liters? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You can’t drain every bit out anyway… there’s fluid inside the internals of the transmission (that’s not accessible).
I don’t know the exact amount of transmission fluid required for the XC90, but other Volvo’s with the same transmission certainly can’t drain 5.5 litres. The most I could get out of my car was 3 litres.
