Since only the bottom five have been revealed so far, let me suggest the following: Nikon F, Nikon F2, Hasselblad V, Canon T90 (technical tour de force and ancestor of the EOS series), Leica M3, Canon AE-1 (most widely sold of the classic manual focus SLR's, pioneered new and economical building techniques), Pentax MX (one of the smallest SLR), Olympus OM-2 (first TTL flash, very compact system camera), Pentax Spotmatic II, Minolta CLE (smallest M-mount, first to offer TTL flash), Olympus XA. Others: Canon A1, Olympus OM-4ti, Canon Canonet G-III QL-17, Olympus 35 SP, Nikon FM3a.

One name you missed that was very important in introducing new 35mm SLR features in a pro system camera was Topcon. For instance it was one of the first to have a fully functional motor drive 35mm SLR body.
