I would be very surprised if your tap water was that low.

Where in Sydney are you?

Had the same thing in Melbourne about 6 months ago, the standard was 6.5 and then it dropped below 5 and then came back up to 6.5.

Took about a month to get back to normal.

You'll find your water supplier has changed your source. of water maybe a summer thing? Ours does here, hardness goes right up.
