SOI is weird. They use the other terminals for isolation and temperature of the individual devices, I think.

You can get the documentation from Berkeley

Devices can be placed in the same trench. The extra pin is this common trench potential. A four terminal MOS turns into a five terminal.

They can actually have 7 nodes, one of which is "temperature"!

Mname <D node> <G node> <S node> <E node> [P node]
[B node] [T node]

As I said earlier SOI is weird (at least the models are)
