It needs to be reset, but it is an easy procedure and you can do it yourself.

For X5's produced from October/November 2000 and beyond:

1. Key in 0 or off position.

2. Press and hold odometer button and turn key to 1 or acc. position.

3. Keep button pressed until any of the following words appear in display: "oil service" or "inspection", with "reset" or "re". For vehicles with "high cluster", the fuel amount (in litres) remaining until next service is displayed (i.e. 3224).

4. Press and hold button again until "reset" or "re" flash. If there is no "flash", minimum consumption value has not been met.

5. While display is flashing, press button briefly to reset service interval indicator. After display has shown new interval, the following will appear in display for approx. 2 seconds:"END SIA"

Yeah, thanks weasel.
Recently I jumped in a bit early with an oil service and now the 'Oil Sevice' light has just come on. I'm now equipped in how to go about removing it.
Cheers
