Okay... 

on a more serious side,  after looking more carefully at the picture, 
there are 4 "mystery" streamers.  Positions at 9, 12,4, and the big one 
in the middle.
If you take a close look the 3 streamers at 9,12,and 4 all have a 
similar shape. The large one in the "front" of the picture seems to be a 
" zoomed" rendition of the highest point of the "arc"of the other 3.  
Also I took the time to count the "pulses" in the  streamer which come 
very close to 60 on average.

So...  the possibility of the situation is ... 4 sodium vapor lamps of 
which 3 are in the distance, the flash captures the T-coil, shutter 
remains open for X amount of time after the CCD ( or film) records the  
initial image. Once the photographer "took" the picture, the camera was 
moved towards the right and then upwards with increasing velocity ( thus 
causing the spread out flashes in the "streamer" ( which are more than 
likely the 60Hz pulses in the street light).
