The guarantee means that if the package doesn't arrive after that point it's their responsibility to assume it's not going to arrive and make alternate arrangements.

In other words, if they "guarantee" tomorrow at 5 PM and it doesn't show then it's late, whereas if they "estimate" tomorrow at 5 PM and it doesn't show then it's whatever, call back tomorrow.
