Have some questions? What current on the 5 volt output?
How much current is available from the generator at (full speed) and (at low speed)?
Is this a cell phone charger?
Using Mr SPEC's idea:
Using a voltage doubler to get 2x higher voltage.
Using a 4 to 140 volt PWM. at 400mA
Will need a change so the PWM will output less current at low input voltage. (easy)

The dynamo is 6W/6V unsaturated, so it should give just over 1A. This depends on speed and load, though other people's tests show 12-15W at higher speeds being plausible.
So for the circuitry, at least 1A, ideally with scope for a bit more. 400mA wouldn't be enough to charge a smartphone. I looked for a PWM that would cover 100v a few weeks ago but they all began with around a 7.5v input voltage (and offered low current).
Also at these voltages Schottky diodes would break down, so back to a 0.7v drop?
