mouse-wheel-down-event and mouse-wheel-up-event default value are
`mouse-4` and `mouse-5`, respectively. But mouse-wheel-buttons's
default is
((4 . wheel-up) (5 . wheel-down) (6 . wheel-left) (7 . wheel-right)) .
Is this inconsistency intended?

It's intended, as by a series of historical accidents Emacs has a
`wheel-down event that is used for scrolling down and vice versa.

A `wheel-up' event that is used for scrolling down. Sorry!

Stefan and Po Lu, thank you for your answers and sorry for my
misreading.
It is not a bug, so I'm closing the issue.

Not sure what is the inconsistency you see here.
If you mean the up/down switch, then it's "documented" in the docstring
of `mouse-wheel-down-event`:
Event used for scrolling down, beside ‘wheel-up’, if any.

Ah, sorry, I misread related documents. I don't have an environments
on which emacs receives mouse-4/5 events for mouse wheel, so I couldn't
confirm actual behavior.
Because Mouse Input node on emacs.info say as below,

I believed wheel-down/up whould send mouse-4/5 events to Emacs.
