See my demo, attached below. The code will let you extract the N largest or smallest blobs. However deciding which label to assign to the small blobs that get merged is not so straightforward, particularly when they may have 2 or more neighbors with different labels. For example, that olive green blob in the upper middle borders orange, brown, magenta, and green blobs. So which color should it take on?

Here's the code simplified to pull out exactly the 5 largest blobs:
% Get all the blob properties.
[labeledImage, numberOfBlobs] = bwlabel(binaryImage);
blobMeasurements = regionprops(labeledImage, 'area');
% Get all the areas
allAreas = [blobMeasurements.Area];
numberToExtract = 5;
% Sort in order of largest to smallest.
[sortedAreas, sortIndexes] = sort(allAreas, 'descend');
% Extract the "numberToExtract" largest blobs using ismember().
biggestBlob = ismember(labeledImage, sortIndexes(1:numberToExtract));
% Convert from integer labeled image into binary (logical) image.
binaryImage = biggestBlob > 0;
