There is not one person with any expertise in evolutionary biology that would expect to see half gorilla/half humans now. Now I would argue that Australopithecus afarensis is a pretty good match for what I think you're talking about. There is never a clearly defined transition between two species, though. There are instead many small changes over successive generations that result in a different species. A rabbit will not ever give birth to a jackalope. But the 5000th generation of that rabbit with certain advantageous mutations will look something like a rabbit, and something like a jackalope. 5000 more generations later, and more of those advantageous mutations give you a jackalope. We're talking tens of thousands of years here.
I think after 5,000 years the Apes now should be able to invent what the apes five thousand years ago could not. Gorillas have not invented the wheel in how many thousands of years? Will they ever?
