This chart is for a AND Gate CMOS IC , and i was just wondering if i am reading it right,

Does 10V = output sink of 10mA and a output source of 5mA

No. It shows the weak output with only a 0.5V voltage drop.

With a 10V supply, its output sinking voltage is +0.5V and its current is typically 2.6ma.
When its output sourcing voltage is +9.5V then its current is also typically 2.6mA.

If you have a load like a 2V LED that causes more voltage drop in the output transistors then the current is typically 14ma sinking and 18mA sourcing.
